The International Institute of Buffalo is offering vital summer safety information — in more ways than one.
The organization has released 10 summer weather preparedness flyers in the top languages spoken in Western New York, including:
- Arabic
- Bengali
- Burmese
- Dari
- English
- Karen
- Pashto
- Somali
- Spanish
- Ukrainian
The flyers all contain general information about the weather in Western New York and what to do when it is extremely hot outside.
“While many foreign-born Western New Yorkers are from warm weather countries, many are not. In either case, both groups may not be aware of how humidity factors into the weather here,” said Jennifer Rizzo-Choi, executive director of the International Institute of Buffalo. “Knowing what resources are available to seek relief from the heat is also important.”
