Hey US people please be aware of a heat dome is going to be present in the Midwest & northern US. Summer is coming right on time with the summer solstice & it is hitting hard. The heat is coupled with humidity with makes it feel much hotter. 

Tips for surviving humid heat
- stay inside in air conditioning esp during the hottest parts of the day (10 am - 5 pm) 
- when going outside use sunscreen, & reapply it! wear light colored loose clothing that covers your body. 
- drink water and electrolytes, more if you are outside. Not just Gatorade or packets of electrolytes but you can eat salty foods or drink things like tea or lemonade with salt & sugar. homemade electrolyte drinks work too. 
- take a nap! If you can do so during the hottest part of the day. 
- take lots of cool showers or baths and change clothes frequently.  You get sweaty even when inside
 If anyone else has any other tips please share them in the comments or provide links to reputable advice.
