The national radar mosaic for the moment the first event began.
1 heat. Local standard time, as filed.
An 83 year old woman died in her home from heat related causes. The central air conditioning was not turned on and all the windows were closed. High temperatures the previous couple of days had been in the middle 90's.
As the offices recorded each death: direct deaths were caused by the weather itself, indirect ones by something it set in motion.
