Drink plenty of fluids even if you don't feel thirsty, but avoid alcohol and caffeine. Stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on elderly and vulnerable relatives and neighbors. Look before you lock! Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles for even a moment. Car interiors will very quickly reach lethal temperatures. 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! Call 9 1 1.
