With another round of scorching hot temperatures on the way Tuesday, Connecticut residents are being urged to stay cool for safety, just as much as comfort.

Cooling centers around the state will be open with many letting people in later in the day, but some, like police stations, open 24 hours.

According to the state, older people, anyone with high blood pressure, and people working outside are the most at-risk of heat-related health issues, which include heat cramps, heat exhaustion, or heat stroke, which can be fatal.

To try to help stay cool, the state recommends everyone wear light-weight, loose-fitting clothing in bright colors, drink plenty of water, whether or not you feel thirsty, and try to stay on the lowest floor of buildings, while covering windows with drapes or shades to keep the sun and heat out.

A lot of the risks and tips also apply for pets, while it is also being recommended that everyone check in on older people they know to make sure they are doing alright.
