NWS Heat Wave Safety Advice: Protect yourself with these recommendations

  • Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids.
  • Seek shelter: Stay indoors in an air-conditioned room to keep cool.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure: Protect yourself and check on vulnerable relatives and neighbors.
  • Child and pet safety: Do not leave young children and pets unattended in vehicles when car interiors can reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.
  • Take extra precautions outdoors: If you work or spend time outside, be sure to take additional safety measures.
  • Select the ideal time: If possible, move strenuous activities to early morning or evening for more favorable conditions.
  • Familiarize yourself with warning signs: Know the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
  • Stay cool with clothing: Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing.

To minimize risks during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) advises incorporating frequent rest breaks in shaded or air-conditioned areas. If someone experiences heat-related symptoms, promptly relocate them to a cool and shaded spot. In case of an emergency, dial 911.
