The National Weather Service recommends you drink plenty of fluids – water is best, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.
Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances.
If you must be outside, try and take care of outdoor work early in the day. Take frequent breaks – finding shade, and stay hydrated.
