TL;DR: open windows and curtains when it's cool and shut them when it's hot, especially in the sun; drink *lots* of non-alcoholic fluids (more than you think you need to); know the symptoms of heatstroke and who to call if you or someone you know has them; try to only go outside at cooler times of day, and when you do, wear sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat.
