  cool.



PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



A Heat Advisory is issued when the combination of heat and

humidity is expected to make it feel like it is 95 to 99 degrees

for two or more consecutive days, or 100 to 104 degrees for any

length of time.



New York City residents should call 3-1-1 to obtain "Beat the

Heat" safety tips.



Seniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health

conditions are at increased risk. Homes without air conditioning

can be much hotter than outdoors.



Use air conditioning to stay cool at home, or go to a place that

has air conditioning. Check on vulnerable friends, family members

and neighbors.



To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and

Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks

in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by

heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke

is an emergency! In cases of heat stroke call 9 1 1.
