The six-foot wax statue of former US President Abraham Lincoln, which is now melting, is modeled after the statue at his memorial. The head and legs of the idol are now melted. Last Saturday, temperatures reached around 100 degrees Fahrenheit, according to weather reports.
The white wax figure was installed outside the school in Northwest Washington last February. It was designed by American craftsman Sandy Williams. The head of the statue is melted and the volunteers have secured it so that it does not fall down and get damaged. Also, it has been said that the wax used for the design of the statue can withstand heat up to 140 degrees. It is at this stage that it melts.
The impact of the heat in various parts of the United States is very intense. Residents of central and eastern regions will have to face extreme heat this month, according to weather reports. So people should be cautious.
It is reported that the impact of the heat has been intense for the last two days. It is noteworthy that the impact of heat is increasing all over the world like Saudi Arabia and India.
