...EXTREME HEAT WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM THIS MORNING TO 5 PM AST
THIS AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...This level of heat can affect anyone without effective
  cooling and/or adequate hydration.

* WHERE...Portions of Puerto Rico, particularly across coastal and
  urban areas and lower-elevation valleys.

* WHEN...From 10 AM this morning to 5 PM AST this afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Heat-related illnesses increase significantly during
  periods of very high heat indices or high temperatures. This
  extreme heat event poses a severe threat to anyone with inadequate
  cooling or hydration. These extreme impacts will be most pronounced
  across coastal sections, lowlands, interior valleys, and urban
  areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Although passing showers, t-storms and clouds
  can provide some relief, enough sunshine and moisture is expected
  for heat indices to reach dangerous levels.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of
the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.

Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car
interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

Take extra precautions when outside. Wear lightweight and loose
fitting clothing. Try to limit strenuous activities to early morning
or evening. Take action when you see symptoms of heat exhaustion and
heat stroke.

To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in
shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency! Call 9 1 1.

Monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates.
