The City of Katy wants residents to Beat the Heat
As temperatures climb throughout this month and the rest of summer, the City of Katy encourages safe habits to prevent heat related illnesses.
Steps to stay cool and healthy:
• If you work outside, make sure you take lots of breaks. (Preferably in shady areas)
• If possible, only work outside during the early morning and late evening.
• Wear light clothing and protect yourself from the sun with a wide brimmed hat, sunglasses and sunscreen – SPF 15 or higher.
• DO NOT leave any persons, especially infants or young children, disabled persons, or animals in a closed, parked vehicle.
• Stay hydrated!! When it’s HOT, water is NOT optional!
