Prolonged power outages during summer can lead to severe health risks, particularly for children, older adults, and individuals with medical conditions. Without air conditioning, homes can quickly become dangerously hot, increasing the likelihood of heat stroke and dehydration. Food spoilage is another concern, especially for those relying on refrigerated medications or perishable goods. Communities with frequent outages, such as those in areas prone to extreme weather, face heightened challenges. Ensuring access to cooling centers and emergency resources is critical to reducing the impact of these events.
