US Southwest heatwave deaths exceed 50 by May 20

Given the issuance of heat advisories and extreme heat warnings for California and Arizona, the combination of record-high temperatures (40-43°C in Palm Springs) and prolonged exposure will likely result in a spike in heat-related fatalities. Historical trends during similar events suggest a rapid rise in mortality within the first two weeks.
