Beat the Heat

Beat the Heat and Check the Backseat.

HI values of 109-116 are possible today as temps go into the upper 90's and dewpoints the 75-80 range.

- Stay indoors if possible.
- If not wear light colored clothing, drink plenty of fluids(water, Gatorade, lemonade)
- Take breaks if you are working outside.
- If your home doesn't have air open all the doors and keep the fans running. Also visiting a public place with air is a good idea to get cooled off.
- Know the symptoms of Heat Exhaustion and Heat Stroke.
- Provide outdoor pets with plenty of water and some shade to help them out.
