Flood and Heat Risks, Simone Biles Dazzles, and Humboldt Park Skating
Aug 11, 2023•25 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
While federal agencies track flood risk across the country, FEMA maps may paint an incomplete picture of the risk in Cook County. Heat risks are also rising for Chicagoans, and community groups are trying to fill a gap in resources. Block Club Chicago’s Mina Bloom and WBEZ’s Patrick Smith are with lead producer Simone Alicea to break down those stories, plus catching up on a fatal shooting of a 9-year-old in Portage Park, Simone Biles’ return to competitive gymnastics, and a Humboldt Park roller skating club.
