The weather service is forecasting a heat wave for the next few days. As of now, the worst two days, will be Shabbos & Sunday. We appeal to everyone that is here in the city to stay indoors as much as possible and to keep the air conditioners running.

Should we lose power in the neighborhood and your phone lines stop working, Hatzoloh will have cars riding up and down the blocks, available to provide emergency assistance. Please look for these vehicles and flag them down.

For all critical emergencies call our regular emergency lines, however, in case of a blackout, for local heat related emergencies, Flatbush Hatzoloh will establish an emergency hotline that can be called for assistance 718-339-6672.

We have identified a limited number of cooling areas throughout the neighborhood and have set aside an ample supply of bottled drinking water.

If you have an elderly neighbor or anyone else who is dependent on electricity, please take a few minutes to check in on them.

No matter what the situation is, remember, it is of utmost importance to drink alot and to stay well hydrated.
