Unprecedented Heatwave Sweeps Puerto Rico, Surprising Meteorologists

Puerto Rico is experiencing an extreme heat wave with temperatures soaring above 100 degrees Fahrenheit and a heat index as high as 125 degrees. Meteorologists warn that other parts of the world will likely experience similar extreme heat this year due to climate change and an exceptionally strong El Niño. Rising temperatures are driving up the dangers of heavy rainfall and powerful storms in the region, where many governments struggle to recover in the wake of disasters due to a lack of resources.
