PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Heat Advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is
expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity
will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are
possible. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned
room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and
neighbors.

Pets are also susceptible to danger during extreme heat events. Make sure your pets are safe by following these tips from the Humane Society of the United States

  • Never leave your pet in a parked car. 
  • Watch the humidity - it makes them less able to cool themselves by panting. 
  • Limit exercise. 
  • Don't rely on a fan to keep them cool. 
  • Provide ample shade and water. 
  • Be on the lookout for heat stroke.
