As we enter the summer months, it is important to be prepared for Extreme Heat events and Power Outages.

☀️ Have a plan to stay as cool as you can and hydrated if your power or AC goes out, protecting yourself from heat related illnesses.

- Plan in advance where you can go to stay cool; are there community spaces that will be open that can provide relief?
- Use ventilation and shading to help moderate indoor temperatures, like covering sun-exposed windows.
- Stay hydrated.
- Use fuel-powered generators safely. Never run a generator inside your home, garage, or basement. Place your generator at least 20 feet away from buildings.
