As temperatures rise across the country, it’s important to remember that extreme heat is one of the leading causes of weather-related deaths each year.

If you are under an extreme heat warning:
• Find air conditioning, if possible
• Avoid strenuous activities
• Wear lightweight clothing
• Drink plenty of fluids
• Watch for signs of heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke

Stay informed. Stay cool. Stay safe.
