| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Strong high pressure aloft along with plentiful sunshine allowed for temperatures to reach dangerous levels during the latter half of September. Temperatures at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport reached as high as 105 degrees during this time, which was enough to result in several heat-associated fatalities. According to Maricopa County Department of Public Health, 4 heat-associated fatalities occurred during this time. Without adequate precautions, highs in the triple digits, or even the 90s, are sufficient to cause serious health problems. As reported by the Maricopa County Department of Public Health, data are aggregated and unfortunately, specifics such as age, gender, location of fatalities, precise dates, and circumstances cannot be obtained. |
