Las Vegas...sizzles at 110 degrees! Tropical heat wave...





Tropicana poolside!



The word is out!

Las Vegas is currently experiencing a tropical heat wave.

Today, for example, the mercury is expected to soar to 110 degrees with no relief in sight.

News anchors were blitzing the air waves at the crack-of-dawn with tips on how to cope.

"If you're feeling thirsty, you're already dehydrated," one pretty reporter warned.

Although six to eight glasses of cool refreshing water is recommended normally, many have  urged that the intake be increased, to at least eight to ten full glasses.

Other suggestions?

*Wear a sunhat
*Slap on some quality sunscreen
*Avoid strenuous physical activities in the mid-afternoon sun

And, don't forget your pet!

*Be wary of hot ashphalt pavement that may burn paws
*Keep all pets well-hydrated
*Avoid locking up the animals in the car

Enjoy!
