Be Cool, Broward.
The heat is back! The record-breaking heat experienced in Broward County last summer emphasized a need for more policy and programs that protect the community, investment in green infrastructure, and protection of systems that are increasingly stressed under hotter conditions. Broward County is keeping a close watch on heat trends and strategies. Visit http://Broward.org/Climate for local data on heat, temperature forecasts, and tips for staying cool. Tell us how warm weather affects you by taking our Heat Survey. Stay Cool, Broward! hashtag#ResilientBroward hashtag#ResilientEnvironment hashtag#BeCoolBroward hashtag#BeatTheHeat
