Safety Reminders

Given the active Air Quality Alert and the dangerous heat index values, it is crucial to limit time spent outdoors, especially during the hottest parts of the day. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water even if you do not feel thirsty. Check on neighbors, particularly the elderly or those with health conditions, who may be more vulnerable to heat stress.

Keep vehicles parked in shade when possible and never leave people or pets inside closed cars. Monitor local news for updates on the air quality situation.
