Driving in extreme temperatures

Arizona Department of Transportation tips for driving in extreme temperatures include:

Have sun protection: In addition to an umbrella, take sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat and wear loose-fitting, light-colored cotton clothing.

Refuel: Keep your tank three quarters full. Running out of fuel can be dangerous in extreme heat, especially in remote locations.

Hydrate: Bring a cooler to keep extra drinking water cold, and consider adding several frozen bottles of water to cool or thaw and drink as needed. Make sure everyone, including pets, stays hydrated.

Get help: If your vehicle breaks down in extreme heat, call for help immediately to shorten the waiting time and run the air conditioning. If the air conditioning isn’t working, roll down all the windows.

Wait for sure: If the temperature inside your vehicle becomes too high, everyone, including pets, should exit carefully and seek or create a shaded area as far away from traffic lanes as possible. Be careful when walking on the pavement as it can be hot enough to cause skin burns. Keep your shoes on and try to keep your pets’ paws off the sidewalk. If you are stopped on the highway, raise the front hood and turn on the hazard lights. Please remember that parking in high bushes can cause a fire.

Check your vehicle: You can help prevent breakdowns and flat tires by ensuring your vehicle is in good operating condition. Check your air conditioning and coolant levels, top off all essential engine fluids, and make sure your battery is up to date. Check your tire pressure as the combination of under-inflation and hot pavement can cause a blowout.

Preparing for a severe thunderstorm

Tips from the American Red Cross for preparing for a severe thunderstorm:

• Put together an emergency kit.
• Know your community’s evacuation plan.
• Create and exercise a household disaster plan.
• Buy a battery-operated radio or a hand-crank radio
• Discuss thunderstorm safety with your household members. Remember that a thunderstorm can lead to flooding.
• Choose a safe place in your home where household members can gather during a thunderstorm. This should be a location where there are no windows, skylights, or glass doors that could break in high winds or hail and cause damage or injury.

Be prepared and stay safe during monsoon

“Most Valley residents know how quickly and violent storms can come and go, bringing high winds, dust, rain and flash flooding. These storms can cause interruptions to water, electric and gas service,” said Glendale Fire Department Capt. Ashley Losch.

GFD reminds residents how to prepare and stay safe:

• Have backup power available for anyone who needs power for a medical device.
• Have backup power available for cell phones that do not need charging.
• Have a first aid kit available and accessible.
• Never drive into areas with running water; It takes less than 10 inches to wash away a car.
• Avoid flooded areas such as: B. Car washes.
• If the water rises, look for higher ground.
• Do not approach downed power lines, the ground may be energized for up to 200 feet.
• Keep pets indoors during storms.
