- A heatwave developing across the eastern United States will bring daytime heat, high humidity, and stifling overnight temperatures, according to BBC Weather.
- The forecast, labeled 'potentially dangerous' in the headline, is presented by BBC meteorologist Ben Rich.
Why it matters: High humidity paired with stifling overnight temperatures means residents across the eastern US will get little cooling relief after dark, compounding the health strain from daytime heat that the BBC already flags as potentially dangerous.
