@nytimes: Heat, on average, is the deadliest weather disaster in the U.S., causing typically over 100 deaths each year — more than hurricanes, tornadoes and flooding.

Judson Jones, a meteorologist and reporter for The New York Times covering extreme weather, explains the dangers and how to find relief.
