During periods of excessive heat... individuals can suffer heat-

If you plan to be outside for an extended period of time in the
afternoon or early evening... stay in the shade as much as
possible and drink abundant amounts of water. Wear light-colored
and loose-fitting clothing. If you wear a wide-brimmed hat... your
head and body will be much cooler. Stop outdoor activities...
drink lots of water or other non-alcoholic beverages... and if
possible... spend more time in air-conditioned or well-ventilated
places.
