Our area on orange alert.
The heat wave or as it is called here the canicule is set to continue for the next few days. The over 75 age group are most at risk apparently. Close shutters on the house and try and keep one room cool. Lots of drinks for every one . If you have elderly neighbours check if they need help or shopping. Make sure your pets have water bowls or buckets filled.
