See heat safety tips to stay cool in Southern California

Southern Californians will feel the first significant heat of the season this week. Here are some tips to stay cool and avoid heat illness.

The rise in temperatures means an increased risked for heat-related illnesses, which can come in two forms -- heat exhaustion and the more extreme heat stroke.

Avoid exercise in the middle of the day. If you need to exercise outside, do it early in the morning when the temperature is lower.

To cool down quickly, run your wrists under a cold tap or keep a water spray in the fridge for a quick cooling spritz to the face.
