🔥 Extreme Heat Safety Tips (Please Read!) 🔥
Heat like this can be dangerous fast—especially for kids, older adults, and anyone with chronic health conditions. Here’s how to stay safe:
✅ Stay indoors in the hottest hours (usually late afternoon).
✅ Hydrate often—drink water even if you don’t feel thirsty.
✅ Avoid direct sun: wear light, loose clothing and a hat; use sunscreen if you go out.
✅ Take breaks if you must be outside—cool down in shade/AC.
✅ Check on others—neighbors, family, and anyone at higher risk.
✅ Never leave people or pets in cars, even for a minute.
⚠️ Watch for heat illness:
Heat exhaustion: heavy sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, headache
Heat stroke: confusion, fainting, hot/dry skin (or very high body temp)
If you or someone else shows symptoms: move to a cooler place, cool down immediately, and call emergency services.
Stay safe out there 🌡️❤️
