Hot Weather Tips:

• Drink plenty of water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine.
• Wear a wide-brimmed hat, or use an umbrella for shade.
• Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose clothing.
• Slow down—rest in the shade or a cool place when possible.
• Never leave a child, elderly, disabled person, or animal alone in a vehicle.
• Keep shaded areas with fresh water for outdoor animals.
• Turn on your air conditioner.
• Check on friends and neighbors who are elderly, have medical conditions, or are at higher risk for problems when it is very hot.
• If you do not have an air conditioner, use a fan, make sure your windows are open, and visit a cool center.
• Take a cool shower or bath.
• When it is hotter than 90˚ ,visit a friend that has air conditioning in their home or a cool place like a mall, a library or a senior center.

You are also at risk if you have certain medical conditions, take medication for high blood pressure, have a mental health condition, have been using drugs or alcohol, or have had a previous heat-related illness.
