California—Wildfires
The Santa Clara County fire was increasing in size and intensity. At the Yucca Valley fire, one canteen and three smaller support vehicles were deployed for three days.

Midwestern U.S.—Heat wave
Kansas City: The Bellefontaine Community Center was used as a cooling center. Volunteers in Kansas City and St. Louis, Mo., distributed cold drinks to people living on the streets.

Emergency shelters and cooling centers assisted more than 2,000 people, including many elderly residents evacuated from nursing homes.

July 28
St. Louis—Feeding Effort Continues

August 1
Florida—Tropical Storm Chris
As of 5 A.M., the third named storm of the 2006 Hurricane season, Chris, has formed. This storm bears very close monitoring.
