| | SAFETY TIP: As temperatures rise, it's important to stay safe and prepared. If you're using fans or air conditioners, ensure they are in good working condition and never overload electrical outlets. Remember, even a short power outage can lead to rising indoor temperatures, so keep emergency supplies like water and battery-operated fans on hand. Stay cool and stay safe! | | | | |
