Safety Reminder

With heat index values approaching 100 and 101, it is crucial to stay hydrated and limit midday exertion. Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing and seek air-conditioned environments when possible. Check on elderly neighbors or those without adequate cooling, as the warm nights will provide little relief from the daytime heat. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun during peak hours to prevent heat-related illnesses.
