The heat and humidity have been creating miserable conditions for many Americans.

To put in perspective how crazy temperatures have been, “Boston hit 102 degrees on Tuesday, which was a new all-time June record for the city dating to 1872,” said The Weather Channel.

The National Weather Service in Birmingham has issued a “Heat Advisory” because of the concern of heat indices reaching up to 109 °F.

The advisory continues through Thursday, June 26, at 7 p.m. for a large portion of Alabama.

These triple-digit heat values can cause uncomfortably hot and humid conditions. This poses a moderate to significant risk of heat-related impacts.
