It’s taken me a summer or two here in Sacramento to realize how to survive those extremely hot (100+ degree days). You’d think that growing up in this dry heat and living in New York for a few humid summers and I would have had this all figured out. I guess I had forgotten how hot it really gets during my years out East.
A few heatwave survivor-mode musts in my book include:
– afternoon iced coffees / tea for a cool down and energy pick-me-up
– easy separates, preferably cotton dresses and tops
– excercise only in the AM (before 8)
– keep water bottles handy (and ice cold) so you can grab and go
– when outside in the later afternoons always wear a hat (and obviously spf)
– invest in a $15 kiddy pool (we just did, ha!) or make friends with someone who has a pool
