South Western US Heat Wave Turns Deadly

Record breaking heat in the south western US has now become deadly, as a man has died in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Temperatures have set new records in Arizona, California, and Nevada.

Even Death Valley, California has come close to setting records of it's own.

In Phoenix, flights were cancelled as temperatures reached one hundred and nineteen.

The cancellations came as many airplanes are only rated for temperatures as high as one hundred and eighteen, and conditions were deemed unsafe for take off.

High temperatures are expected to continue through Tuesday.
