Safety Reminders

Given the active Heat Advisory and extreme heat index values, it is critical to prioritize safety. Stay hydrated by drinking water frequently, even if you do not feel thirsty. Limit outdoor exertion, especially during the midday hours when the sun is strongest.

Seek air-conditioned environments as much as possible. Check on elderly neighbors and those who may be vulnerable to heat stress. Never leave people or pets in parked vehicles, as temperatures inside can rise rapidly to life-threatening levels.
