It’s crucial to take early warnings of heat waves seriously and plan our day accordingly, prioritizing outdoor activities post-sunset. With summer approaching, several cities have issued heat wave alerts as temperatures soar, significantly impacting daily life and posing risks like heat stroke.
Here are some preventive measures to stay safe:
- Stay Hydrated: Drink water and fluids consistently throughout the day to prevent dehydration.
- Avoid Strenuous Outdoor Activities: During heat waves, it’s best to minimize outdoor exertion and stay indoors whenever possible.
- Ensure Access to Cooling Facilities: Make sure everyone has access to drinking water, swimming pools, and spray pads to stay cool during extreme heat.
- Wear Appropriate Clothing: Opt for loose-fitting, light-colored cotton clothes during summer. If outdoor activities are unavoidable, apply sunscreen and use hats or umbrellas for added protection from the sun.
