Heat-Related Emergencies
Heat Home • Heat Basics • Responding to Heat
Intense heat can lead to more than a drought. It can also cause unhealthy air due to ozone and other pollutants trapped by stagnant atmospheric conditions; medical emergencies due to exposure to high temperatures; increased chance of wildfires; and increased chance of losing electricity. Make sure you are ready to take the heat.
