Heat Advisory

The changing climate means Oakland residents can expect more excessive heat events. Excessive heat affects everyone differently and can increase the risk of heat-related illnesses, such as heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and dehydration. Warmer temperatures create more pollen in the air, stronger airborne allergens, and more allergy symptoms. Certain populations such as the elderly, children, people with disabilities, and those living alone are at a higher risk during heat events.
