And some tour escorts are not cooperative with that, so I worry about coming weekend (besides a 5 hour Futurue Farmer tour of 5 hours this evening.)</P> <P>Just a warning and please be careful not to leave pets or children in the car even on the shortest of stops. Despite warnings, every year we hear of accidents, and this year it will be no different, although i take these posters are smarter than that....</P> <P>Be careful and have a safe latter part of the week.</P> <P>Magenta</P> Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:45:34 GMT Magenta 2011-07-20T14:45:34Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Do-You-Drink-Enough-Water-in-these-Heat-Waves-Medical-Advice/m-p/97882#M48119 <P>Here in DC we are expecting also well over 100 heat index in the next couple of days, and on our sight seeing tours we are outside 9WALKING!!) nearly 4 hours, which I now have to adjust as it is way too dangerous.
