Broken Weather Records in

Local Projections for Heat & Health 11 By 2100 in Michigan: There are likely to be days each year exceeding 90°F Temperatures are expected to rise ~ 6-10° F in winter ~ 7-13° F in summer By 2030, summer climate will likely resemble Ohio. By 2100, summer climate will likely resemble Arkansas.

Local Resources for Heat & Health 12 Cooling centers Block captain programs Utility assistance (DTE, THAW) Weatherization programs (WARM) Para transit through DDOT Ongoing programming at senior and recreation centers
