A dangerous early-season heat wave will impact the central and eastern U.S. between June 20-24, bringing the hottest temperatures of the season so far. A Climate Central analysis finds that human-caused climate change made this extreme heat at least three times more likely for around 174 million people — nearly half of the U.S. population.| www.climatecentral.org

Transitioning to using HeatRisk empowers us to respond earlier, when the people who are most likely to experience heat-related harm need support. This is KCRHA’s third summer using HeatRisk-based activation thresholds. We have aligned our activation tiers for extreme heat to better respond to the actual risk that any given heatwave poses to those living unsheltered in King County.| KCRHA
