(CNSNews.com) - As part of its efforts to address climate change the Obama administration has designated May 23-27, 2016, as Extreme Heat Week.
According to the White House, the five-day span is dedicated to having federal agencies work with communities to enhance preparedness for extreme heat events.
In recognition, the government has launched the National Integrated Heat Health Information System (NIHHIS) website this week. The website was created through a joint effort by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
NIHHIS is an integrated system that builds understanding of the problem of extreme heat, defines demand for climate services that enhance societal resilience, develops science-based products and services from a sustained climate science research program, and improves capacity, communication, and societal understanding of the problem in order to reduce morbidity and mortality due to extreme heat, the website says.

“Stay outta the sun!”
Last week was “Extreme cold week” so it all evens out!
A spotless sun is associated with such frigid cold periods such as the Dalton and Maunder Minimums. And, not too presumptuous to say, the up and coming Man-Bear-Pig Minimum.
The high temperature in Pittsburgh this past weekend was in the low 50’s.
Just proves all the “scientists” have liberal arts degrees.
Shouldn’t they pick a week in July or early August for Extreme Heat Week?
does his “extreme heat week” refer to his famous ChiTown bath house?
