Something to Heat Stress Over

Guest: Paul IñiguezIf you asked 100 people what the deadliest weather risk is, odds are they would pick some of the more flashy natural disasters, like hurricanes, tornadoes or lightning.  Some may even say the cold temperatures with how brutal it gets in the northern tier during the winter. But the real answer is the heat!  And it’s not necessarily the record heat during the hottest time of the day, it also includes the overnight temperatures that don’t let our body cool down.  And that’s the keyword right there: our body.  NWS meteorologists in the western region have developed a forecast product that will make it easier for everyone to understand their heat risk, and we have Paul Iñiguez on the show today to talk about it!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
