SUMMER HEAT WAVES 

Dress light and eat light. Avoid "drying" out by drinking plenty of water, even though you may not feel thirsty. Stay away from foods high in protein if you will be spending lots of time out in extreme heat and remember to put on plenty of sunscreen.

Know the warning signs of heat stress and heat stroke, which include headache, fatigue, cramps, nausea, and confusion. Profuse sweating at first, and then LACK OF SWEAT is a sure sign of heat stroke. At this point, your top priority is to cool your body temperature! Get yourself to a cool area and get medical help immediately!

FIRESTORMS 

If you live in an area that is prone to wildfires, keep an up-to-date inventory of your belongings and have a plan in place to evacuate quickly. Put your valuables in one location for easy access. When fire threatens, it is important that you evacuate people and pets as soon as possible! If you have time, grab those valuables, but remember the loss of life is much greater! Material things can be replaced, so use common sense!
