Seniors and young children are particularly at risk, and residents are encouraged to check in on friends and family who they think may be vulnerable. 

Pets should be kept indoors. People should hold off on taking them for walks in the heat. Remember, if the pavement is too hot for bare feet, it is too hot for bare paws.

In hot temperatures, never leave children or pets unattended in vehicles.

Lastly, remember to enjoy the hot weather!
