People can be seriously affected by heat if precautions are not taken, so be sure to stay hydrated and find some shade if you are going to spend time outdoors. Drink plenty of fluids, 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.
