¡Nueva York se está achicharrando! Ola de calor rompe récords y afectaría festejos del 4 de julio

New York City is facing one of the most intense heat waves in decades just before the Fourth of July celebrations. The city reached 100°F (38°C), tying a record that had stood since 1966, while the heat index exceeded 108°F (42°C) in some areas due to the combination of high temperatures and humidity. Authorities have issued extreme heat warnings for New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, where there is also a risk of thunderstorms that could affect the traditional Independence Day fireworks displays. Power outages have also been reported due to high energy demand, and cooling centers have been set up to protect the most vulnerable residents. Experts explain that, although this heat wave is not solely due to the El Niño phenomenon, its strengthening in the coming months could lead to even more extreme temperatures and other severe weather events in different parts of the world. Authorities recommend staying hydrated, avoiding prolonged sun exposure, and following official alerts during the Fourth of July festivities.
