Houston is facing a difficult recovery effort after deadly storms left at least seven people dead and hundreds of thousands without power. Amidst the cleanup process, residents are also being warned about high temperatures and poor air quality. The National Weather Service predicts highs of around 90 degrees (32.2 C) through the start of the coming week, with heat indexes likely approaching 100 degrees (38 C) by midweek. The Houston Health Department has distributed 400 free portable air conditioners to area seniors, people with disabilities, and caregivers of disabled children to contend with the heat. Five cooling centers have also been opened in the area.
