STORYLINE:
Much of the Midwest and the Northeast is broiling — or set to broil — in extreme summer heat this week.

Vermont residence Katie Lanni and her friend, Cloe Ashton, are planning to escape the heat dome by camping near water at Molly’s Falls Pond State Park.

When asked about her thoughts on the heat dome, Cloe Ashton said, " I kind of like it better than all the rain last summer. I’ll take this over 70 days of rain in a row."

The heat dome will affect a broad swath of the eastern half of the country, from roughly the Great Plains states up through Maine.

Almost 77 million people in the United States were under extreme heat alerts Tuesday.
