Probably. But mostly it is prone to desert heat, because it is a freaking desert. nt Hekate Jun 2018 #7

It was so hot across the desert that I was worried about being too hot on my car.
In my wildest dreams I can’t imagine putting children in tents in the desert.
What if the a/c goes out?
The most vulnerable in the population to extreme temps are very young and very old.
Trump just wants to use sheriff joe blows idea.
I am appalled.

apparently hundreds of them. I doubt incompetent Trump boobs have been able to make it possible to match up babies/children with parents. In fact, many were told that they would never see their kids again so perhaps this is deliberate. There will be no reunification for these families in many case...will the babies be sent back to their country with no parents or kept in baby jail indefinitely? I weep for my country.

What happens to kids locked in prison with no place to find safety if there is a severe storm with high winds that could rip apart those tents even if there isn't a threat of tornadoes.
