Summer heat can be enjoyable, but it's important to stay safe, especially when temperatures rise. Here are some tips to stay safe in hot weather:
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty. Avoid excessive caffeine and alcohol, as they can dehydrate you.

Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose-fitting clothing in light colors to reflect sunlight and heat.
Limit outdoor activity: If you must be outside, try to do so early in the morning or later in the evening when it's cooler. Take frequent breaks in the shade.
Protect your skin: Use sunscreen with a high SPF to protect against sunburn, and wear a hat and sunglasses.
Stay cool indoors: Use fans, air conditioning, or cool baths/showers to lower body temperature.
Check on vulnerable individuals: Keep an eye on children, elderly relatives, and pets, as they are more susceptible to heat-related illnesses.
Know the signs of heat-related illness: Symptoms include dizziness, headache, nausea, rapid heartbeat, and confusion. If you or someone else shows signs, move to a cooler place, hydrate, and seek medical help if symptoms worsen.
Never leave anyone in a parked car: Temperatures inside a parked car can rise to dangerous levels quickly, even with the windows cracked.
By taking these precautions, you can enjoy the summer while staying safe and healthy.
