Heat Safety and Resources

Governor Sherrill encourages New Jerseyans to take the proper precautions as extreme heat impacts our state.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, limit strenuous outdoor activity during the hottest parts of the day, and never leave children or pets in parked vehicles. We also encourage everyone to check in on neighbors, older adults, people with disabilities, those with chronic medical conditions, and anyone who may be especially vulnerable to extreme heat.
