Good afternoon, Central Coast!
Another hot week is in the forecast. A heat advisory remains in effect until 8pm for portions of southwest California.
Hot conditions will increase the risk for heat related illness for sensitive populations, including the very young, the very old, and those active outdoors.
Only minimal relief is expected after Wednesday, with a moderate chance of some areas needing an extension to these advisories.
Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances.
Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when possible. 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 911.
