Heat is the number one weather related killer in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that there are approximately 618 heat related deaths in the United States each year.

Whether working in a factory or playing on a football field, excessively high temperatures can take a toll and have serious health consequences.

The Heat Aware™ app is your pocket reference for heat illness prevention with features including:

• Proactive tips to "beat the heat"
• Signs, symptoms and life-saving advice
• Heat Aware™ users guide
• Interactive knowledge quiz
