For those hoping autumn brings with it relief from the summer heat, some long-range forecasters say not so fast.
Following the close of summer, millions of Americans can expect a delayed transition to cooler temperatures with the greatest impacts expected in the Great Lakes region, the Midwest, and the Rockies.
With this extended heat also comes an increased risk of wildfires and severe weather. That is of course bad news for areas like Oregon where wildfires are still burning across the state.
