Temperatures are very hot throughout the Plains and Upper Mississippi Valley, with record highs “likely and expected,” the National Weather Service said.
Travelers this Labor Day holiday weekend are mostly getting a break from calmer, but hot weather across much of the U.S.
As of afternoon on Sunday, there were few delays and cancellations at U.S. airports, according to flight tracking site FlightAware. And at the Burning Man festival in Nevada, an estimated 70,000 people remain stranded in the Black Rock Desert after heavy rains turned the ordinarily dry terrain into thick, sticky mud. The Pershing County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of one person during the festival, but hasn’t shared details about the person’s identity or cause of death. The burning of the wooden Man is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. Sunday, weather permitting.
