While we won’t see temperatures in the mid-90s like last weekend, temperatures remain warmer than normal. So, take precautions:

1. When playing or working outdoors, wear sunscreen and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and heat. Drink plenty of fluids. (See more safety tips in earlier post below).
2. Adhere to water safety directives when boating or swimming in pools, rivers, and lakes. Always wear a life vest, even if you consider yourself a strong swimmer.
3. Remember that fire danger remains high and a burn ban is still in effect.

Enjoy the sunshine and extra dose of summer weather!
