An extreme heat event is several days or more with uncommonly hot temperatures that can be harmful to people. Climate change will make extreme heat events more common, especially in cities. New Orleans will have warmer temperatures during the year. Illnesses and deaths caused by extreme heat events are preventable.
The Occupational Heat-Related Illness (HRI) Prevention Program monitors emergency department (ED) visits for HRI to determine the effect of extreme heat on people seeking healthcare in Louisiana. The HRI data will be updated weekly on Tuesdays from April to October this year.
