Excessive Heat warning for Interior northern California

This is just the high temperatures for Redding, California for example:
102 saturday
110 sunday
111 Monday
110 Tuesday
So, you can see why they are warning people because this is in Fahrenheit and if you are out somewhere exposed to the heat with no air conditioning you have to be careful so you don't wind up in a hospital or dead somewhere. Most people aren't adapted to this much heat yet either because it hasn't been this hot I think before this this year.
 
Though these temperatures are not usually as humid as eastern parts of the Country it is still something serious to think about for everyone in these areas during these days.

SITUATION in which heat illnesses are likely.

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out
of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible, reschedule strenuous activities to the early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water.

Young children and pets should never be left unattended in
vehicles under any circumstances. This is especially true during
