A heat dome in the center of the country will continue to bring dangerous heat throughout the week and into the weekend.

Many heat alerts are in effect for the center of the country, with temperatures already reaching 10 to 20 degrees above the average for most over the past few days.

However, they have shifted a little, and areas like Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan are no longer under any alerts.

Scroll through the slides below to see the high temperatures for the week. 

Temperatures will continue to stay hot for the Midwest and Plains, with highs reaching the lower 100s for many. 

The Southeast will also feel the heat through Friday and Saturday.
