LAS VEGAS (AP) — Used to shrugging off the heat, Las Vegas residents are now eyeing the thermometer as the desert city is on track Wednesday to set a record for the most consecutive days over 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46.1 Celsius) amid a lingering hot spell that will continue scorching much of the U.S. into the weekend.

On Tuesday, Las Vegas flirted again with the all-time temperature record of 120 F (48.8 C) reached on Sunday, but settled for a new daily mark of 119 F (48.3 C) that smashed the old one of 116 F (46.6 C) set for the date in 2021. Forecasters say the city will likely hit a record fifth straight day above 115 F (46.1 C) on Wednesday.

Shit's happening even faster than I expected. I'm hoping to be able to migrate before the masses wake up and do the same.

Migrate? I don’t think anywhere will be safe…unless you mean just escaping the local high temps in the US Southwest.

Northern Canada is still almost entirely empty and cold. So give it a bit and it will be the only spot with summers under 80°
