Beat the Heat

Stay cool and safe this summer with these essential tips:

Be aware of Heat Index (HI) values issued by the National Weather Service.
Recognize symptoms of heat disorders like sunburn, heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke, and know how to provide first aid.
Take care of yourself by staying indoors during peak heat hours, wearing light-colored and loose-fitting clothing, staying hydrated, and avoiding alcohol and caffeine.
Slow down and avoid strenuous activities during the hottest parts of the day.
Never leave children or pets in closed vehicles, protect them from the sun, and ensure they have access to shade and water.
Protect your home by using shades or draperies to block out sunlight, conserving electricity, and avoiding activities that generate heat indoors.
Familiarize yourself with heat disorder symptoms and first aid procedures.

Enjoy the summer responsibly!
