OSAA Heat Index Calculator

The OSAA Heat Index Calculator website provides a comprehensive resource for managing heat safety in Oregon high-school sports. It features an interactive OSAA Heat Index Calculator powered by real-time temperature and humidity data, step-by-step Heat Index Policy guidance, and an explanation of how local measurements differ from broader forecasts. The policy uses five heat index zones and provides corresponding safety measures. These tips include hydration plans, limiting practice duration, incorporating mandatory recovery, and modifying athlete attire. The site also includes the OSAA Heat Index Policy, how the Heat Index Calculator works, and information on Today's Alerts.
