CNN —As an unrelenting heat wave enters its 39th consecutive day, millions of people from California to Florida are asking: When will it end?
El Paso, Texas, has been in the triple digits for 32 consecutive days.
In Miami, the record warm sea surface temperatures, combined with light winds are causing stifling heat: The heat index there topped 100 degrees or more for a record 37 consecutive days.
The heat will remain until a shift in the weather pattern occurs and either breaks apart the heat dome or moves it out of the country completely.
