And, the incentive program is only available to employees of specific companies, like steel producers River Steel, US Steel, and Atlas Tube. Mississippi County's incentive program is part of a recent wave of efforts across rural America to increase populations and local businesses. Related storiesFor Mississippi County, this growing housing demand has provided an opportunity to build their towns and cities. The housing incentive program offers a 10% forgivable loan on a new home construction with a maximum home cost of $500,000, meaning some families can receive up to a $50,000 housing credit. As more families move to or settle in Mississippi County, Scott expects it will have a positive effect on businesses, the school system, and public spaces.

Some areas could endure the longest heat wave they’ve seen in decades, the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center said. Tens of millions of people who aren’t used to heat this intense will be sweating in temperatures well into the 90s this week. Through the rest of the week, the most extreme heat risk is in place from the Great Lakes into the Northeast, according to the National Weather Service. Humidity will also join forces with extreme heat to create triple-digit heat indices – measurements of how hot the human body feels – in some areas. Chicago residents could feel heat indices between 95 and 105 degrees through next week, the NWS in Chicago warned.

Almost 72 million people across the country were under warnings of extreme heat Monday morning, the National Weather Service said. With Thursday's seasonal solstice taking place amid a weeklong heat wave expected for the East Coast and the Midwest, the summer of 2024 is coming in hot. Extreme heat warnings were in place for Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Boston, New York City and Albany, New York. The weather service office for Pittsburgh said it "could be the most impactful heat wave of the 21st century." The weather service is also on the lookout for any possible tropical storms developing in the Gulf, it said.

A record-breaking heat wave with a combination of humidity and temperatures well into the 90s will descend on cities in the Midwest and Northeast this week in what is expected to be a dangerous weather system days before summer officially begins, forecasters said. “The duration of this heat wave is notable and potentially the longest experienced in decades for some locations,” the National Weather Service said on social media on Sunday. In Pennsylvania, temperatures in Philadelphia, Allentown and Reading are expected to reach 95 degrees or higher for five consecutive days, a streak that has not occurred since July 2022, August 1953 and July 2011, respectively, according to the Weather Service office in Mount Holly, N.J. The severe heat was rapidly developing ahead of a low pressure system and spreading to the central Plains, Great Lakes region and Ohio Valley on Sunday, the Weather Service said.

Millions of Americans from Texas to Maine will face sweltering conditions this week as a heat wave takes hold in the eastern half of the United States, according to forecasters. Beginning Sunday, rising temperatures will hit the South, then stretch over the Midwest before spreading to the East Coast by midweek. Here are five numbers to help put this coming heat wave — and our warming climate — in context. (In Pittsburgh, he added, there are temperature records dating back to 1875.) That figure would be just one of what Mr. Weiss said could be dozens of temperature records broken this week in cities across the northeastern United States.

His wife retired in 2015 at 35 and worked part-time until they had their first kid. Other family expenses include $7,800 for three family vacations, $6,000 for entertainment, including sporting events and social functions, and $4,200 for baby items. He also said he feels safer as an Asian American in San Francisco than in many other parts of the country.

"I don't think there's any place where we are seeing significant price reductions," Realtor.com data journalist Evan Wyloge told Business Insider. "A lot of this list has to do with the baked-in affordability for some of these places." Not a single West Coast city cracked the top ten — simply because there are no affordable pockets out West, Wyloge said. Realtor.com scoured the US to find the most affordable cities and ranked them by how many listings they had under $200,000 — excluding land, mobile homes, and cities with less than 100 listings.

Depending on where you live, what's considered a middle income may not actually afford you a middle class lifestyle. Still, over half of U.S. adults self-identify as middle class or upper-middle class, according to a 2024 Gallup Poll. The organization defines middle class as income between two-thirds and double the national median household income, after incomes have been adjusted for household size. Middle income residents make up 65% of the population in Dover, Delaware — the largest share of over 200 metropolitan areas Pew analyzed. There, you need to earn between $36,292 and $108,876 a year to be considered middle class.

CNN —Many Americans may get hot under the collar when they open their electric bills this summer, but for some, the consequences of rising utility costs can be a lot more serious. He pointed to the National Weather Service’s prediction that much of the country will probably have above-normal temperatures this summer. The difference in projections stems from the association assuming higher rates of usage because of hotter temperatures, Wolfe said. The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, known as LIHEAP, has $4.1 billion to help consumers with heating and cooling costs, down from $6.1 billion in the prior fiscal year. “Because of the lack of a coherent policy to address summer cooling, people will die this summer from heatstroke,” Wolfe said.

According to a report by the National Association of Realtors, pending home sales fell 1.5 percent in October to their lowest level in 20 years. These so-called pending sales are a forward-looking indicator of closed sales one-to-two months later. Pending sales were 7.4% lower than in April of last year. Because the count is based on signed contracts, it shows how buyers are reacting to mortgage rates in real time. With home prices still climbing and supply very low, leading to increased competition, that jump in rates had a huge effect on sales.

Rates of emergency room visits for conditions related to heat rose substantially in many parts of the United States last summer, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We asked emergency room doctors around the country what the public should know about extreme heat. Heat-related illnesses range from minor rashes to life-threatening heat strokes. Mild heat illnesses include heat rash; swelling in the hands and feet; muscle cramps; and heat syncope, or a fainting episode after standing too long or getting up suddenly. People with heat exhaustion have more severe symptoms, which could include headache, nausea, vomiting and dizziness.
