The National Weather Service office in Mount Holly, New Jersey has issued a Heat Advisory that went into effect at 2:38 AM Eastern Time on July 14th and is set to remain in place until 8:00 PM Eastern Time on July 15th.
During a Heat Advisory, dangerously warm conditions are expected that can pose serious health risks, particularly for the elderly, young children, and those with certain medical conditions. Residents are encouraged to drink plenty of water, stay in air-conditioned spaces when possible, and avoid strenuous outdoor activity during the hottest parts of the day.
Officials also recommend checking in on neighbors, friends, and family members who may be especially vulnerable to heat-related illness. Never leave children or pets unattended in parked vehicles, as temperatures inside can rise rapidly to life-threatening levels.
If you or someone you know experiences symptoms of heat exhaustion or heat stroke — such as heavy sweating, dizziness, nausea, or confusion — seek medical attention immediately.
