And heat-related deaths there have more than doubled over the last 5 years. But while these trends are truly disturbing, there is hope. Because of its extreme circumstances, Phoenix has been forced to explore innovative solutions and is learning how to adapt urban life to hotter and hotter temperatures. In this episode of Weathered, we delve into the latest science of the “urban heat island” effect, learn about the looming threat of a potential “Katina-like event” that threatens their electrical grid, and explore the gamut of options being pursued by scientists and activists to make life safer and more livable in America’s hottest city. Weathered is a show hosted by meteorologist Maiya May and produced by Balance Media that helps explain the most common natural disasters, what causes them, how they’re changing, and what we can do to prepare. #ExtremeHeat #ClimateChange #Phoenix Subscribe to PBS Terra so you never miss an episode! https://bit.ly/3mOfd77 And keep up with Weathered and PBS Terra on: Facebook:   / pbsdigitalstudios   Twitter:   / pbsds   Instagram:   / pbsds   Thank you to Margaret A.
