A new round of heat combined with high humidity will build in the eastern United States from Sunday to Tuesday and some areas will challenge record highs set in the 1800s. Temperatures will again surge to well above the historical average in much of the eastern United States from Sunday to Wednesday during what is typically the hottest time of the year for many locations, AccuWeather meteorologists warn. The heat will create opportunities to enjoy the pool or beach, but conditions can be dangerous.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria.

Major relief is on the way for the summer swelter that sent temperatures and humidity levels soaring, air conditioners working overtime, and people flocking to beaches and pools in the Midwest and the East. However, AccuWeather meteorologists say that while the humidity will come down in the North, it is likely to stick around in the Southeast.
