Younger kids and older adults are more likely to suffer heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
Scott Moreland, the Helotes fire chief, said his team mostly serves people of these groups when they’re out on heat-related calls.
He said the rule of thumb for people out working in the heat is to take a break every 20 minutes and drink eight ounces of water. “As best as you can, stay out of the heat,” Moreland said. “When you are out working in the heat or gardening, pace yourself. Give yourself a little bit of a preload of water and keep yourself hydrated.”
“You should just drink lots of water, sports drinks, electrolyte solutions to keep yourself hydrated,” Riviello said. “If you’re going to be out there for a long time, you may want to consider keeping a pack of something sweet, like some honey and maybe some salt packets, in case you get into trouble because you want to replace those electrolytes.”across the San Antonio area, Moreland said he’s expecting to see more families playing outside.
