Bexar County Public Health

Keep safe while outdoors!

Bexar County will be under an Extreme Heat Warning with heat indices reaching up to 115 degrees, Thursday from noon to 8 p.m. It's important that we remember to check on our neighbors and look out for vulnerable populations. Heat related illnesses can impact anyone, so be sure to take breaks in the shade while outside, drink plenty of water, dress comfortably with light and loose fitting and never leave anyone or any pet in a hot car. For more safety information in how to prepare for the days ahead, visit www.bexar.org/extremeheat

Pictured are our amazing Bexar County employees ➡️ the amazing planning committee ➡️ the amazing steering committee! We could not have done it without their support and effort.
We look forward to next year!
