EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE

Extreme heat has been forecast in our region over the coming days. Survive the heat by following these five tips:

 Drink plenty of water. Stay hydrated with frequent sips.

  1. Hot cars kill. Never leave kids, adults or pets in cars, as the temperature inside a parked car can double within minutes.
  2. Keep cool. Draw your blinds, use a fan, take cool showers and dress in light, loose clothing made from natural fabrics.
  3. Plan ahead and schedule activities in the coolest part of the day.
  4. Check in on others. Look out for anyone vulnerable – neighbours who live alone, an elderly friend or family member, people with medical conditions and your pets.
