• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Avoid alcohol and caffeinated drinks.
• Stay Indoors: If possible, stay in an air-conditioned place.
• Limit Outdoor Activities: Avoid strenuous activities during the hottest parts of the day.
• Use Fans and Cool Cloths: Use fans to circulate air and damp cloths to cool down your skin.
• Cold Showers: Take cool showers or baths to lower your body temperature.
• Wear Light Clothing: Wear lightweight, loose-fitting, and light-colored clothing. A wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses can provide additional protection from the sun.
• Check on Vulnerable Neighbors: Keep an eye on elderly neighbors, young children, and those with health conditions, as they are more vulnerable to heat.
• In case of a medical emergency due to heat exposure, call 911 immediately.

By taking these precautions, we can ensure the safety and well-being of our community during these challenging weather conditions. Stay cool and stay safe.
