Summer 2024: Much of US Could Be in for Record-Breaking Temperatures, Forecasters Say

An unusually hot summer has been predicted for most of the United States this year, according to weather forecasters. Warmer-than-average temperatures are expected from June through August. A summer forecast map released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on April 18 shows most of the United States bathed in shades of red or orange.

According to NOAA, the Northeast and major parts of the West will likely bear the brunt of the heatwave, which, according to some forecasters, could be one of the hottest summers on record.

Previous record-breaking temperatures were recorded in 1936 and most recently in 2021. According to Todd Crawford, a forecaster with the Weather Company, these could be matched or even exceeded this year.

The Weather Company echoed NOAA’s forecasts by announcing that much of summer 2024 could see extended periods of warmer-than-average conditions.

However, not all forecasters share the optimism for a hot summer. According to AccuWeather, temperatures are not looking as promising as those forecasted by other weather service agencies.
