Scorching temperatures are flaring across the U.S. in a continuation of the Earth’s record heat streak, which started in June 2023. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s projections, 2024 has a 61% chance of trumping 2023 as the warmest year in the history of recorded temperatures.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the heat we’re experiencing right now is lethal; thousands of people have died of heat stroke and other excessive heat-related complications. Unfortunately, due to the intensification of global warming, hot days will only become more frequent and blistering as time goes on.
Over the coming decades, it will become increasingly difficult to beat the heat. But naturally, some areas are cooler in the summer than others. Which cities are known to have the mildest summers? Are they at all affordable for folks on a frugal budget ?
Current Results Publishing, which provides weather and science facts, reported 10 major cities in the U.S. where the mean temperature during summer days doesn’t exceed 71 degrees.
