Detailed Description |
6:34 PM PDT Friday 12 July 2024 Heat Warning in effect for: South Okanagan - including Penticton This is a heat warning. Elevated temperatures are expected and there is a moderate risk to public health. Where: Southern BC Interior. When: Hot conditions will continue into the weekend. What: Daytime highs reaching the mid to high 30''s and overnight lows in the high teens. Remarks: The temperatures have slightly moderated in the southern interior but will remain elevated at or near warning criteria. Heat affects everyone, but the risks are greater for: seniors, people who live alone, people with pre-existing health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease or respiratory disease, people with mental illness such as schizophrenia, depression, or anxiety, people with substance use disorders, people with limited mobility. Check on family, friends and neighbours, who are at higher risk, particularly if they live alone, to make sure they have a cool space. Watch for early signs of heat illness (feeling unwell, fatigue, thirst, headache, unusually dark urine) as these can rapidly evolve into life-threatening emergencies. Move to a cooler environment immediately, such as a shaded or air-conditioned space. Drink plenty of water regularly, even before you feel thirsty to decrease your risk of dehydration. Thirst is not a good indicator of dehydration.
