Record-breaking heat in Phoenix; Holocaust novel; Phoenix Zoo VR experience

More from this show

On this episode of “Arizona Horizon,” we will discuss the record-breaking heat wave to come this March. The National Weather Service says temperatures in Phoenix could reach 108 degrees by this weekend. These are record-breaking temperatures and an extreme heat warning is in effect.

Also, we will hear about a new novel called “Stolen Legacies,” which explores the ongoing global effort to recover art stolen from Jewish families during the Holocaust with historical storytelling and legal analysis.

Finally, we will learn about a new VR experience at the Phoenix Zoo that transports you across continents and habitats, immersing you in thrilling safaris and extraordinary up-close animal moments.
