During periods of extreme heat, the Harford County Department of Emergency Services encourages citizens to follow these safety guidelines:

Stay indoors as much as possible and limit sun exposure;
If you do not have air conditioning, open your windows and use a fan;
Drink plenty of water and avoid strenuous activity;
Never leave children or pets alone in a closed vehicle;
Check on elderly neighbors and other vulnerable citizens;
Keep pets hydrated with access to shelter.

According to the Harford County Health Department, heat illness takes many forms, including heat fatigue, heat syncope (sudden dizziness after exercising in the heat), heat cramps, heat exhaustion or the most serious, heat stroke. Heat stroke is an advanced form of heat stress that occurs when the body is overwhelmed by heat and unable to control its temperature. A person with a body temperature above 104 degrees is likely suffering from heat stroke and may have symptoms of confusion, combativeness, a strong rapid pulse, lack of sweating, dry flushed skin, faintness, staggering, possible delirium or coma. Individuals with any of these symptoms, especially older adults, should receive immediate medical attention.
