OUCH! PROTECTING YOUR PETS
• It looks like I'm shouting to the world in this screen grab! And I am. Be responsible with your pets!
• If you missed my segment on the news last Friday, I showed you pavement temperatures.
• I measured surface temperatures on the concrete sidewalk and asphalt driveway at my house last summer. Using an infrared thermometer, I measured temperatures of 150° and hotter!
• Not included in this graphic: I remember hitting 159° on the black/top asphalt on a 97 degree day also.
• Don't have a thermometer? Easy rule: If the pavement is too hot for your bare feet, then it's too hot for paws!
Be safe, friends! - George
