As Kansans experience consecutive days above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, city and county officials have once again announced cooling locations for residents. According to the Kansas Mesonet, Aug. 19 conditions in Manhattan were the hottest in the United States.
The excessive heat is warning continued through Friday evening.
The county offered these tips:
Never leave children and pets alone in hot vehicles. Heat rises quickly in cars — as much as 20 degrees in up to 10 minutes.
Check on family members and neighbors, especially elders.
Wear light, loose-fitting clothes, stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade.
Research and know heat-related sickness, such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
Avoid high-energy activities.
Try to stay indoors in an air-conditioned area.
Check on pets. Bring them inside and provide them with plenty of cool water.
