| Event narrativeevent_narrative | The triple digit heat that began at the end of July continued through at least the first half of August across Oklahoma. Overnight lows also remained high with temperatures only falling into the upper 70s to low 80s most nights. The heat caused the deaths of 5 women and 3 men across the area. One woman was found dead in her home, which did not have the air conditioner operating, in Shawnee in Pottawatomie County. Another woman was found in her home in Ada in Pontotoc County. The air conditioner was not on in this home either. A woman in Medford in Grant County was working in her flower garden when she collapsed and died from the heat. Two women in Carter county died from the heat. One woman was found in her home in Lone Grove. There was a window air conditioner unit. However, this was not adequate to cool the whole house. The second woman to die in Carter county in August was 94 years old. However, the circumstances of her heat death were unknown. Two of the three men that died were from Oklahoma City. One of these men was found under a shade tree in front of his home that did not have air conditioning. The second man was found dead in a field behind a storage shed. The third man that died in August collapsed in Johnston county while he was walking outside. The man eventually died at a hospital in Oklahoma City from the effects of the heat.Emergency services also made numerous calls across the area due to heat related illnesses.
