PUEBLO — The Pueblo Public Health Department is preparing to deal with extremely hot temperatures this week.

With high 90's and triple digits expected to hit the area, water stations have been installed throughout the city, including City Park, the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center, and the El Centro Del Quinto Sol Rec Center.

The most important message the department has.... stay hydrated.

"With the heat and everything, just trying to keep people hydrated and making the healthy choice the easier choice so they can see those water filling stations and right away go fill and get some fresh water," said ....

If your business wants a water station, call the Pueblo Health Department.

The department also suggest staying out of the heat during the middle of the day, but if you do go out, wear a hat, find shade, and keep a water bottle handy.
