With the east coast currently suffering a heat wave, or “heatpocalypse”, where high temperatures are breaking records, people have started to vent on Twitter. So many people are tweeting their comments about the heat wave that the topic is receiving 4 “heat tweets” to every one Justin Bieber tweet.
The king of Twitter, Justin Bieber has been a constant trending topic on the micro blogging site for the past year. Although Bieber is ever-present, top twitter trends have diverted from the seventeen-year-old heartthrob recently. Users are tweeting tips to beat the heat, and discussing both “heat domes” and “sweat ceilings” in lieu of the current heat wave.
Over half of the U.S. is under weather advisory for triple-digit Fahrenheit heat temperatures that continue to hit the 34 states.
“We’ve put out a forecast including heat alerts, advisories and excessive heat warnings for all or part of 29 states and DC, from northern Texas to Maine,” National Weather Service spokesperson Chris Vaccaro told AFP Friday.
Typically cooler states have not escaped the dangerous heat, and people who live there are unaccustomed to such high temperatures.
“Right now, in Portland, Maine, it is 89 degrees (32 Celsius) and it feels like 100,” Vaccaro said.
