• Be aware because extreme heat can cause health problems including heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and even death.

• Check-in with people who may need help, including pets.

• Stay indoors, in cool temperatures if you can, and keep hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids such as non-caffeinated beverages, like water.

• Fruits or vegetables with high water-content (watermelon, watercress, lettuce, and apples) are also good sources to help stay hydrated.
