The Environmental Commission of the Megalopolis (CAMe) declared Phase 1 Environmental Contingency on Saturday, April 25, in Mexico City and Mexico State due to high ozone levels from a heat wave. Expanded vehicle restrictions apply today, Sunday, April 26, under the Double Hoy No Circula program from 5:00 to 22:00. Temperatures in CDMX will reach 30 to 32 degrees Celsius.
Building on the record-low snowpack and early heat risks entering spring, a prolonged March heat wave shattered temperature records across the Western US, from Tucson to Casper. Described as the earliest and most widespread in the Southwest, climate change made it far more likely, compounding winter droughts and raising long-term wildfire and ecosystem threats.
