DENVER — With three days of 100-degree heat anticipated in Colorado, Sarah Garcia and her 1-year-old son Jonathan are finding every reason to cool off.Before spending any time in the sun, Garcia is taking every precaution with her little one.

Record-breaking temperatures are expected in Denver and across Colorado over the next several days. Dr. Genevieve Hillis, an emergency medicine physician with UCHealth, said you can start preparing your family now. Heat cramps: “That’s the most mild. All of us have probably experienced that at some point. So, we’re outside, we’re running around, hiking, biking, just enjoying Colorado. It’s hot and the sun here is really strong. And so when any of us get to the point where we start feeling a little overly fatigued, we start getting muscle cramps, that’s kind of the first stage. And it’s because of water loss and salt loss most commonly, but it’s easy to fix.
