Top Things to Know and Do BEFORE a Heat Wave

1
Stay indoors,
or in the shade at least.

3
Have an air conditioner, swamp cooler, or other means of staying cool.

Note that a ceiling fan uses the least energy.

5
Avoid alcohol and high protein food; they raise your body temperature.

7
Consider visiting Ventura
or another coastal area;
they are always far cooler than Ojai.

9
Do not run the washing machine, dryer, or computer for long periods of time. These generate huge amounts of heat.
