1:24Now PlayingExtreme heat smashes Phoenix’s 49-year record for consecutive days over at least 110 degrees.
RELATEDExpect 'more intense heatwaves' as a result of climate change
The city smashed its record for most consecutive days at 110 degrees or higher as a historic temperature inferno tightened its grip across much of the nation's southern tier Wednesday. The city also set its all-time mark for hottest night on record early Wednesday with an overnight low of 97 degrees, the National Weather Service in Phoenix reported.
Oppressive temperatures will continue to spread across the south-central and southeast U.S. through this weekend, forecasters warned. And Phoenix can expect little relief: The weather service warned that the "extremely dangerous and long-duration heat wave" will continue over the Southwest well into next week.
