Folks out there in philly, fans are not as good as air conditioning, in terms of the keeping us cool so if you dont have air conditioning in your home and i really suggest find a neighbor, find a store a place you can go to spend a day that is air conditioning. Also avoid using those ovens and stove this is not best time to radiate that heat more. Speaking of ovens are there certain foods that can keep you cool. That is a great question my personal favorite is a i love grapes. We did a segment we brought frozen grapes. It has a high water content orange, that is best thing is water, you want to stay hydrated. People who are very young and old you only need to Pay Attention and keep an eye on them. We have been talking about the air quality too those with asthma and this is time to keep an eye on everybody and avoid that sun wear sun screen, wear hats and stay out of the heat. Less than 302nd left if you have to be outside. Yes. Would i say try not to be. Yes. If you have to work outside. If you are working those tips, the hat, the light colored clothing make sure you try to avoid those keep a water bottle or ice pack with you to stay cool, and check on each other and if you are not feeling well get out of that sun, that is really important.
