00:00The weather most likely to kill you isn't the one making the biggest headlines.
00:04National Weather Service data from the past 30 years shows extreme heat is the deadliest weather
00:08hazard in the United States. Flooding rings second, followed by wind then tornadoes.
00:12Heat is so dangerous because it can affect millions of people over days at a time.
00:17Unlike a tornado or hurricane, the danger builds gradually and many people don't realize they're
00:21experiencing heat illness until it's already serious. It's a reminder the deadliest weather
00:26doesn't always look the most dangerous.
