一 | PHOENIX -- The toll of heat-associated deaths in Arizona's most populous county — still being tallied after the area's hottest summer ever recorded — has soared over 360, alarming public health officials who say the final count will surely set a new record.Maricopa County, the hottest metropolitan area in the U.S. and home to Phoenix, reported this week that 361 heat-associated deaths have been confirmed this year as of Oct. 7. Another 238 deaths remained under investigation. As of the same time last year, 331 heat-associated deaths had been confirmed, with another 126 deaths still being studied. No other major metropolitan area in the U.S. has reported such high figures or spends so much time tracking and studying them.“It definitely looks like we'll see more deaths than last year and maybe even more than 500,” said Dr. Rebecca Sunenshine, medical director for Maricopa County Public Health. "But we won't really know until the end of the season.”Maricopa County set an annual record last year with 425 heat-associated deaths confirmed. This summer, Phoenix experienced the hottest three months since record-keeping began in 1895, including the hottest July and the second-hottest August. The daily average temperature of 97 F (36.1 C) in June, July and August passed the previous record of 96.7 F (35.9 C) set three years ago.Phoenix also set a record in July with a 31-day streak of highs at or above 110 F (43.3 C).Sunenshine said Maricopa County began tracking heat-associated deaths in 2005, then gradually began collecting additional information, including the age, sex, race and ethnicity of those who died and whether they were indoors or outside when they got sick. Investigators also began noting whether those who died inside had an air conditioner, whether it was working and whether there was electricity to power it. Sunenshine said collecting that kind of information has led to rules requiring regulated power companies to keep the electricity running during hot spells even if the bills haven't been paid. “It's really important to know the circumstances around these deaths,” Sunenshine said. “It can lead to policy changes.”The number of people dying from heat-related causes has risen not only in the Phoenix area, but across the U.S. and around the world as climate change makes heat waves more frequent, intense and enduring.Counting such deaths can take months of investigation, including toxicological tests, to determine whether heat was a contributing factor in someone’s death. The deaths Maricopa County tallies include ones that were the direct result of high temperatures, such as heatstroke, as well as ones in which heat was a contributing factor, such as a heart attack provoked by the hot weather.Approximately three-fourths of the heat-associated deaths in Maricopa County so far this year year were outside. About 44% of those who died were people experiencing homelessness in a county where an estimated 10,000 don’t have permanent housing. More than a third of all the people who died were 65 or older.There have been 89 indoor heat deaths in the county confirmed so far, mostly in homes where the air conditioning was not working or turned off.。本网讯记者佟玲报道　　8月1日,市总工会党组副书记、分管日常工作副主席宗明轩，市总工会党组成员、副主席徐景友、栾静率领市总工会慰问组来到市防汛指挥部，走访慰问防汛一线干部职工，向坚守岗位的一线干部职工表达深深的敬意和亲切的慰问，为一线防汛干部职工送去了毛巾、方便面等慰问品，勉励一线干部职工既要发扬连续作战精神，高标准、严要求做好防汛具体工作，又要加强自身安全防护。　　7月22日以来，受台风“格美”的影响，我市各县（市）区连续遭遇雷雨天气，特别是“7·25”强降雨，造成全市防汛形势严峻。全市各级防指按照市委、市政府工作部署，严格落实防汛工作责任制，市气象、水文、自然资源等部门密切配合，采取有效措施应对汛情。
