Outdoors: Stay hydrated, take plenty of breaks in the shade, limit strenuous activity as much as possible.
Indoors: Stay in air conditioning. Check in on neighbors without air conditioning and sensitive populations.
Vehicles: Never leave kids or pets unattended in vehicles. Look before you lock!
Young children and newborns, the elderly, pregnant individuals, and individuals with chronic illness are more vulnerable to dangerous heat than most. Be sure to check on your family and neighbors during this heat wave, especially those who are more vulnerable.
