Instructions:

Drink plenty of fluids, and check up on elderly and vulnerable relatives and neighbors. Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles under any circumstances as vehicle interiors can reach extreme temperatures in as little as 10 minutes. Close curtains during the daytime to reduce sun insulation into the home and open windows at night to allow the home to cool off. Utilize fans or community buildings with air conditioning. Locations next to the ocean or glaciers will be cooler with a stronger breeze in the afternoon.
