PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take extra precautions when outside by staying hydrated, wearing
lightweight and loose fitting clothing, and limiting strenuous
activities to the early morning or evening. Check up on relatives
and neighbors. Never leave young children or pets in an enclosed
vehicle, even for a short time, as temperatures can quickly rise
to life-threatening levels.

Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
To reduce risk when outdoors, the occupational safety and health
administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in
shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency! Call 911 ASAP if you or someone you know is exhibiting
signs of heat stroke.
