TV-13 meteorologist Doug Meyers is reminding residents about hot-weather safety tips the next few days.
Other tips include wearing light, loose-fitting clothes and changing your schedule if possible to do more strenuous activities in the morning and evening. Also, make sure to check on young and old alike to make sure they aren’t suffering any sort of heat-related stress.
