Regional Roundup: Extreme heat in rural communities

In this week’s Regional Roundup, we hear about the different ways people are staying cool this summer, and how extreme heat is taking a significant toll on rural communities. We also hear an audio postcard from Green River, Utah, about the tradition of melon growing, and a story about solar panels that could make farms more resilient. We finish up with a story about the Colorado researchers who are taking part in a major national study on hail.
