Episode notes

Record-breaking summer heat is impacting more than people's comfort. It's also taking a toll on North Carolina's roads. As temperatures climb, asphalt absorbs and retains heat, causing pavement to soften. Kim Deaner, spokesperson for the NCDOT, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss how they’re keeping roads safe.
