A heat dome is expected to bring dangerously hot conditions to much of the US, including a surge in temperatures to triple digits. This will also increase the risk of wildfires. As a result of these wildfires, toxic smoke is anticipated to be a problem.

The heat and increased wildfire risk are expected to move west across the US this week. Further information on this developing situation can be found in the Waco Tribune-Herald, which is monitoring the situation and providing updates as more details become available.
