 July is going to be hotter than ever because you get up to $50 off any smartphone at Appalachian Wireless to your agreement required. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless, an East Kentucky network company. Temperatures are in the mid 90s and that could be particularly dangerous for some of our more vulnerable friends and neighbors, including our youngest ones. Biggest thing we want to talk to people about is things that have made national headlines in the past is the fact that sometimes infants get left in car seats out in a hot car. Extremely dangerous, we'll always be, you know, make sure that we're paying attention to our kids, that we're not leaving them. You know, even if we're going into Walmart or in the store just for a couple minutes of stuff, when temperatures are reaching 90 to 100 degrees and stuff, it's really not safe. Especially the very young infants just don't have the capability of burning off heat like, you know, adults doing stuff. So it's not going to take long and that can get really, really hot. I mean, just imagine just sitting in there for, you know, five or ten minutes without air conditioner, went on somebody to get in, you imagine how hot it gets. And that with the windows rolled up, you know, it could be a lot worse. Kids aren't the only ones at particular risk in the heat. According to the AARP, those 60 and over are at increased risk due to difficulties with dealing with changing temperatures. That puts them at risk when the summer heat sets in. Elderly people, you know, that are staying at home or they're living in older houses and stuff that may not have the accessibility to air conditioning or to proper water sources and things, it's all, you know, teamed up together and make sure that we're taking good care of our neighbors and stuff that might be a little bit older, but I don't have the adequacy, you know, hydration and things that they need. Let's just, you know, watch everybody take care of each other. And our two-legged neighbors are not the only ones that need to be watched and cared for in the hot weather. Also, we got to watch for our pets, you know. I've got three little fur babies at home, so you want to make sure that you take care of your animals, make sure they get plenty of drink and don't leave them in a hot car either or some stuff. But no matter your age, it's important to always remember to be mindful of yourself and others in the summer heat. No one respond to the signs of heat stroke and heat exhaustion. Never leave kids or animals in hot cars. Stay hydrated in the heat, especially if you're working outside and use any number of other common-sense steps to staying safe in hot weather.
