Outdoor time
Use today's risk, peak heat window, and sun guidance to think through timing, shade, breaks, and cooling options.
What the levels mean
HeatSafe translates Phoenix-area conditions into practical guidance, then pairs each level with plain-English actions.
Conditions may still feel warm, but risk is lower for most people using routine shade and hydration precautions.
Carry water, use shade when you can, and keep an eye on hotter afternoon hours.
Long time outdoors can become uncomfortable, especially in direct sun or for people with fewer cooling options.
Plan breaks, drink water often, and ease back on outdoor effort during hotter hours.
Heat stress may build quickly, especially for outdoor work, exercise, or anyone who is more vulnerable to extreme heat.
Reduce exertion, look for indoor cooling, and check on people who may need support today.
Conditions can become serious quickly and extended outdoor exposure may be unsafe for many people.
Seek cooler indoor space, postpone strenuous activity, and act fast if someone shows severe symptoms.
Safety disclaimer
It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or emergency dispatch. Heat conditions can become serious quickly, especially for older adults, outdoor workers, children, and people with existing health concerns.
If symptoms feel severe, someone is confused, faints, has trouble breathing, or may be in immediate danger, seek urgent help and call 911.
