Residents should prepare for warmer weather, which is expected to persist throughout the weekend. It's crucial to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day and avoid strenuous activities during peak heat hours, typically from late morning to mid-afternoon. Wear light-colored, loose-fitting clothing and a wide-brimmed hat if you must be outdoors. For those without air conditioning, consider visiting public spaces like libraries or cooling centers. Check on elderly neighbors, friends, and relatives who may be more vulnerable to heat-related illnesses, and never leave children or pets unattended in vehicles.
