It's a double heat wave day with dangerously high temperatures hitting the Pacific Northwest and the Northeast. Portland reached a dangerous 116 degrees Monday, breaking the city's all-time record for the third day in a row. Seattle clocked in at 108 degrees, breaking the city's record high for the second consecutive day. "It feels like living close to hell," said Allan Apo of Marysville, Washington, about 35 miles outside of Seattle. Apo bought a small window unit for his bedroom when the heat wave hit, but even with the unit blasting, the 68-year-old said the temperature in his bedroom was 80 degrees overnight.More Related News
