We are lucky that we don't have to deal with excessive heat right now. Remember that it is still technically spring until June 21, 2022. For people living in the southwestern US, they will be experiencing above normal high temperatures. From the NWS:
Short Range Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 410 AM EDT Thu Jun 09 2022
...Excessive heat over parts of Central/Southern California and the Southwest on Friday and Saturday as record high temperatures persist over southeastern Texas... Furthermore, upper-level ridging will expand westward over California by Friday. Upper-level ridging and dry soils will combine to allow high temperatures in the upper 90s and 100s for much of Central/Southern California and the Southwest. Little respite overnight as low temperatures are also expected to tie or break records across much of the region on Thursday and Friday nights. Therefore, excessive Heat Warnings are in effect for much of the Southwest. Additionally, excessive Heat Watches/Advisories affect much of Central California and parts of western Nevada. Records in southeast Texas continue to be threatened through the weekend as high temperatures remain in the low 100s.
