"I drink a lot of water and Gatorade that I keep in my emergency bag on the bicycle. The shorts always help, too." - West New York Police Officer Maria Rivera

"I stay home! Nah, just kidding. I eat a lot of $.25 Icees and try to stay out of the sun." - Adrianna Soto, Union City, and her son Anthony, 1.
"Well, I try to stay home in the air conditioning, but if I go outside, I drink a lot of water and Gatorade." - Evans Velasquez, Union City
