Residents were advised to check on neighbors, family members & #pets, & to be aware of #heat related illnesses, such as #dehydration, heat exhaustion & #heatstroke.

Brian Hurley, a meteorologist at the #Weather Prediction Center, said the conditions are the result of a #HeatDome — a high-pressure system that traps hot air, like a lid on a pot, causing temperatures to rise day after day with little relief.

The claim is circulating that antidepressants can cause overheating and dehydration. This is a genuine public health message, but it's not so simple: diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, antipsychotics, and some antihistamines may also interact badly with hot weather.

There's even doubt about antidepressants having this effect. A recent paper in eClinicalMedicine looked at all the studies they could find and concluded that there wasn't evidence of antidepressants causing overheating in hot weather - though some other medicines do.

"Current evidence supports strong anticholinergics, non-selective beta-blockers, adrenaline, and anti-Parkinson’s agents impairing thermoregulation during heat stress ... physicians should interpret with caution conventional public health messaging related to the thermoregulatory effects of some drugs (e.g., antidepressants) during hot weather."
