Dangerous heat wave continues across the US coasts, Midwest

>> A "SUNDAY SITDOWN" WITH HENRY WINKLER PLUS ANOTHER "LIFE WELL LIVED" A BIT LATER IN THE SHOW. >>> LET'S BEGIN THIS MORNING WITH THE DANGEROUS HEAT FROM CALIFORNIA ALL THE WAY TO NEW ENGLAND. TEMPERATURES IN SOME PLACES WILL REACH WELL INTO THE TRIPLE DIGITS. LET'S BRING IN METEOROLOGIST RYAN HANRAHAN FROM OUR NBC CONNECTICUT STATION IN HARTFORD. RYAN, IT IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER BAD ONE TODAY, RIGHT? >> IT SURE WILL BE. THAT BRUTAL HEAT WAVE CONTINUES FOR A LARGE CHUNK OF THE COUNTRY. 94 MILLION ACROSS THE COUNTRY UNDER HEAT ADVISORIES OR EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS FROM CALIFORNIA TO THE PLAINS ALL THE WAY TO THE NORTHEAST. NOW THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE MUCH RELIEF IN THE COMING DAYS, BUT LOOK AT THE NUMBERS FOR TODAY. WE'RE FORECASTING 98 DEGREES IN PHILADELPHIA BREAKING THE RECORD OF 97 DEGREES. 98 IN WASHINGTON TODAY WOULD TIE THE RECORD FOR THE DAY. WE GET A LITTLE BIT OF COOL AIR TO COME IN WITH JUST A BIT OF RELIEF TOMORROW FOR THE NORTHEAST, BUT THE HEAT CONTINUES DOWN TO THE SOUTH. 98 IN BIRMINGHAM. 100 IN MACON, GEORGIA, AND 100 DEGREES IN FORT SMITH, ARKANSAS. IT IS GOING TO BE HOT INTO THE WEEK. AGAIN, NOT A WHOLE LOT OF RELIEF. LOOK AT THE NUMBERS FOR TUESDAY. NASHVILLE, 98. ATLANTA, 97. LOUISVILLE, 95 DEGREES. SO THINGS ARE GOING TO REMAIN WARM WITH THIS EXCESSIVE HEAT ACROSS A GOOD CHUNK OF THE COUNTRY FOR THE COMING DAYS. WITH THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WE ALSO HAVE THE RISK FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE IN THE NORTHEAST FROM OHIO IN WEST VIRGINIA THROUGH PENNSYLVANIA INTO NEW ENGLAND. STRONG, GUSTY WINDS, TORNADOES, HAIL A POSSIBILITY, AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE GREATEST THREAT FOR TORNADOES THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING WILL BE ACROSS UPSTATE NEW YORK AND INTO PORTIONS OF NEW ENGLAND FROM MASSACHUSETTS INTO NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAINE.
