Dealing with the Arizona Heat
It gets hot here in Arizona - both in the desert and in the cities like Phoenix and Scottsdale. If you are moving here from a cooler location, there are some things you need to keep in mind for your own health and the health of others. Follow these rules and you will beat the heat:
If you are working or playing outside on a hot day, keep water nearby. And it is best not to be by yourself.
Do not go to sleep outside exposed to the sun.
NEVER leave children or pets in a car on a hot day. The temperature in the car will only be magnified, and it can be extremely dangerous.
It might be best to leave your air conditioning running to maintain a constant temperature in your home.
Do not walk barefoot outside on a hot day.
Do not touch metal objects that have been sitting in the sun.
Now, this advice can be applied to just about anywhere in the U.S. in the summertime - but Arizona is one of the hottest states, so these tips are even more critical here. We love the sun out here, but if you're not respectful of its power, you can really get burned...literally!
