A heat-wave blanketing the US heartland in humidity has claimed the lives of 13 people, according to US media.
The National Weather Service put 18 states stretching from Montana to Texas to West Virginia under a heat warning, watch or advisory, with the heat index topping 38C (100F) in most locations.
The heat is expected to move east in the next several days.
More than 1,000 US heat records have been broken this month, officials said.
Though many US states have recently seen temperatures over 90F, some regions saw heat indexes - a combination of air temperature and relative humidity - up to 131F.
