The Heat Advisory is expected to impact residents of Cherokee County, particularly those who are vulnerable to heat-related illnesses, such as the elderly, children, and individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Outdoor workers and those without access to air conditioning are also at heightened risk. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to heat exhaustion or heat stroke, which are serious medical conditions requiring immediate attention. Pets and livestock are also at risk and should be provided with adequate water and shade.
