In June 2023, Austin-Travis County EMS had 234 heat-related calls. Last June, it was 159.
Some people still managed to get a workout done outside.
"I'm still braving the heat, I saw it was right below 100 before I stepped out, minus the heat index of course, and so I thought I could make in a quick slight jog and just stay in the shade, and keep lots of water, I hold my water with me when I'm running so try not to overdo it," Evan Norman said. "It's a little too extreme today," Chad Nachtigal said. "Maybe when the sun goes down a little bit, a little bit more, it's pretty intense today.
Signs of heat stroke can include hot skin, not sweating, and possible unconsciousness. It can be life-threatening. If you see someone with those symptoms, move them to a cool area and call 911. "When our medics are outrunning these calls, and they come across someone who's truly in heat stroke, they are going to aggressively cool them, so they're going to dunk them in a tub of ice water, they've going to give them chilled IV fluids, they're going to be covered in ice packs, and they're going to do anything they can to get that core temperature lower," Stedman said.
