...EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING WILL EXPIRE AT 7 PM MST THIS EVENING...

Temperatures will remain well above average through the coming week, 
but not quite as hot as the last few days. Even so, please continue 
to take precautions as we continue to see unseasonably hot 
temperatures.

Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car 
interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

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.

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 
and drink plenty of water.
