Heat wave safety in Marietta, from Dr. Wendy Katz

With the heat wave sweeping through Marietta and the majority of the East coast this week, Dr. Wendy Katz wants you to be extra careful when you’re out and about. This morning on Good Morning America, Dr. Richard Besser discussed the ways you can protect yourself from heat stroke and other heat-related issues this summer. Heat exhaustion or even heat stroke can happen when temperatures reach the 90s or higher - as they are this week.

Dr. Katz and team encourage you to watch this short clip and remember to always have a bottle of water handy when heading out!
