There is an elevated threat for dangerous heat stress conditions into early next week. Heat exhaustion will be likely with prolonged outdoor activity, so continue to exercise caution, take plenty of breaks, and stay hydrated. Make sure relatives and neighbors have a cool place to stay.
Outdoors: Stay hydrated, take plenty of breaks in the shade, limit strenuous activity as much as possible.
Indoors: Stay in air conditioning. Check in on neighbors without air conditioning and sensitive populations.
Vehicles: Never leave kids or pets unattended in vehicles. Look before you lock!
Young children and newborns, the elderly, pregnant individuals, and individuals with chronic illness are more vulnerable to dangerous heat than most. Be sure to check on your family and neighbors during this heat wave, especially those who are more vulnerable.
