East Coast Endures Record Humid Summer Driven by Climate Warming
-
最新报道：Record-breaking humidity and heatwaves hit 70 million East Coast Americans in June-July 2025, with 27 states enduring dangerous heat-dew point combinations. Dew points above 65°F surged since 1950, while "oppressive" 75°F+ days spiked in cities like Philadelphia and Washington.

The extreme conditions strained energy grids, disrupted construction and agriculture, and increased heat-related illnesses. Scientists warn this signals a long-term climate shift, requiring infrastructure and emergency protocol overhauls for recurring extremes.
