July is one of the hottest
months of the year and it's important that you keep these points in
mind in order to protect your family and pets:
- Wear loose-fitting, lightweight and light-colored clothing.
- Keep yourself hydrated
- Keep from doing outside activities in the middle of the day
- Never leave children or pets alone in closed vehicles
Extreme heat can be
dangerous and deadly, particularly for the elderly and infants, but
staying indoors and drinking plenty of water will help you stay cool
and hydrated when temperatures rise.
