Extreme heat is when temperatures hover 10 degrees or more above the
average summer high for several weeks. High humidity can add to the
discomfort. Ways to protect yourself against the heat include: Drink
plenty of fluids, wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing, wear
sunscreen, and limit outdoor activity to mornings and evenings. When
you work or play in extreme heat, use the buddy system and keep an
eye on each other. Stay cool as much as you can. And above all, NEVER
LEAVE CHILDREN OR PETS IN CARS!
