West LA Times

Long-lasting heat waves are affecting the western United States, increasing health risks and the potential for wildfires. Daniel Swain discussed these extreme summer conditions during a "weekend edition" of YouTube "Office Hours" on Saturday, July 6 at 3 p.m. PT.

Swain described the situation as having "an extraordinarily long duration of very high fire risk conditions amid a historic heatwave."

The recording of the discussion is available online for those interested in further details about the ongoing climate challenges.
