Stay Healthy

The best way to prevent seasonal flu is to get a flu shot. But there are also other important things you can do to stay healthy during flu outbreaks.
For many people, fall means the start of football season. Those shorter, cooler days also mark the start of flu season. So make fall a time to beef up your efforts to prevent the flu and other respiratory infections.
1. Wash your hands often. Hand washing is a simple but powerful way to prevent many types of infections, including the flu. Use soap (any type will do) and warm water. Scrub for 15 to 20 seconds. Rinse well, and dry with a clean towel or paper towel. If you don't have access to soap and water, use an alcohol-based hand wipe or gel sanitizer.
2. Keep your hands away from your face. Flu germs can live for hours on surfaces such as doorknobs and desks. They can enter your body if you touch a contaminated surface and then touch your eyes, nose or mouth.
3. Steer clear of sick people. Try to avoid close contact with people who are sick. If possible, stay out of crowds when flu outbreaks are highest in your area.
4. Cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze. Use a tissue and then throw it away. If you don't have a tissue, use your hand. Then wash your hands to get rid of the germs.
5. Build your defenses. Keep your immune system strong by eating a healthy diet, getting plenty of sleep and getting regular exercise. Always talk to your doctor before you increase your activity level.
If you get the flu
Sometimes even the best prevention fails. If you do get the flu, stay home until you're well. This can help keep the flu from spreading.
Antiviral medicine can often shorten the severity and duration of the flu. But it works best if you start taking it within the first two days after flu symptoms start. Symptoms of flu can include fever, headache, tiredness, sore throat, dry cough, nasal congestion and body aches.

Watch vs. Warning

                    

Here are some meanings of weather related warnings and watches.

  Watches vs. Warnings:

A flash flood Watch means conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding, a very dangerous situation. Do not attempt to cross water-covered roadways, as your vehicle could be swept downstream.
 
A flash flood Warning means a flash flood is imminent or is occurring. Take immediate action to protect life and property.

A severe thunderstorm watch is issued when conditions are favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms over a larger-scale region for a duration of at least 3 hours. Tornadoes are not expected in such situations but isolated tornado development can also occur.

A Severe Thunderstorm Warning is issued when there is evidence based on radar or a reliable spotter that a thunderstorm is producing, or forecast to produce, wind gusts of 58 mph or greater, structural wind damage, and/or hail 1" in diameter or greater.

A Tornado watch is issued when there is a threat of large hail, damaging wind, and the possibility of multiple tornadoes.

A Tornado Warning is issued when a tornado (or sometimes a funnel cloud) has been spotted or is denoted by radar. When a tornado warning is issued for your area you should seek shelter immediately.

Be safe!
