Description:

This dataset uses daily PRISM climate data (maxT - dry bulb) from 2019-2023 to create average annual and maximum annual days over 90 degrees (F), by census block group. This dataset was developed to provide a community level geospatial layer that communicates relative heat risk (dry bulb--humility is not factored). Daily maximum temperature rasters were taken from PRISM Climate Group. These daily maximum temperatures were converted to binary layers: >=90 degrees (1) and <90 degrees (0). These binary layers were added together and divided by 5 (years) to get an average estimate of days above 90 degrees, as well as a maximum over the 5-year period. Raster data was aggregated into 2022 census block groups using a focal spatial join. This data layer is currently being used in EJScreen.
