LAFD announcements:

Dear Friend of the LAFD:

1. Given the recent loss of life attributed to heat in other parts of the
country, we felt that pending hot weather in Southern California makes
some messages worth repeating. Please click on the links below for more
information about...

- Firefighters Warn of Heat Wave Dangers
http://snipurl.com/tlu8

- Cooling Centers Open During L.A. Heat Wave
http://snipurl.com/tlu9

- Children, Hot Weather & Cars = Danger!
http://snipurl.com/tgjk

Throughout the Summer - but especially this weekend, please don't
underestimate the heat or overestimate your abilities!

We encourage you to share this message with your friends and family.
And since some of you have asked... you are also welcome to publish
these safety tips in your neighborhood or business newsletters!

2. It shows up on billboards, freeways signs and the newspaper. They
encourage you to "do it now", because "there is an alert", yet
misunderstandings and misgivings remain. We knew it was a challenge
today, when a confused local resident asked about the program that
"helps bend energy".

No matter what you call it, 'Flex Your Power' is an important energy
efficiency and conservation program that all Californian's should be
aware of. Especially today. With sustained hot weather anticipated for
this week, we encourage everyone in The Golden State to become familiar
with Flex Your Power:

measures, visit:

..and keep an eye on EDIS for information in the event of a widespread
power emergency:
