Americans are feeling the heat

An AP-NORC poll finds that 74% of U.S. adults say they’ve been affected by hot weather in the last five years, up from 55% in April.

September results are based on interviews with 1,146 U.S. adults conducted Sept. 7-11, 2023. April results are based on interviews with 1,230 U.S. adults conducted April 13-17, 2023. The margin of error for each poll is ±3.9 percentage points for the full sample. Source: AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research
