Aside from the heat, other parts of the country are facing additional severe weather alerts, notably for rain. “Severe storms and bouts of heavy rain to occur from the Nation’s Heartland to the Ohio Valley and Northeast through Tuesday,” the Weather Service warned. In one part of Long Island in New York, five inches of rain fell in less than two hours. “We are in a very, very unstable weather condition,” Kathy Hochul, New York’s governor, said. “Your car can go from a place of safety to a place of death.”
