Heat Wave!?!

Do you live in the North East?? Because if you do, you are probably feeling the effects of day 4 of the giant heat wave sweeping across the East Coast. Triple digit heat and record breaking tempertatures are not making life for 50+ Americans very nice lately.
Make sure to check out this Bulletin article about how to stay cool in this inferno.
But, just because it's hot out doesn't mean you have to become a hermit! Be sure to monitor your activities and time in the sun to reduce your risk for heat-related illnesses, wear a hat to protect yourself from the sun, and drink plenty of water throughout the day to replace lost fluids. Don't wait until you're thirsty to drink. ;)
Another helpful tip - Lower your daytime electric bill and avoid peak temperatures by visiting public places with air conditioning. For more tips click here!
