π§ Use water wisely during the heat wave! Stay hydrated, limit outdoor and take following precautions to stay safe!
1. Drink about 1 cup of water per hour and at least 2-3 liters / 0.5-0.8 gallon per day.
2. Wet your skin using a damp cloth, spray, or wet clothing.
3. Keep yourself cool
4. When below 40ΛC / 104ΛF, fans cool the body. Do not use fans above 40ΛC / 104ΛF as the fans will heat the body.
5. If you are using AC, set the thermostat to 27ΛC / 81ΛF and add a room fan. This will make the room feel 4ΛC / 7ΛF cooler.
6. Seek shade and remember that it can be cooler outside in the shade.
Extreme heat can be deadly, Avoid vigorous activity at peak heat hours. Seek medical attention if you or others feel faint, dizzy, or nauseous. Check on elderly above 65 years, neighbors, family, and friends. Especially check on those with heart, lung, or kidney conditions, a disability, and living alone.
