Yeah, heat stroke is nothing to mess around with. Drink lots of water and try to keep to cool places if possible.
Working in conditions like that you kind of need to work a bit slower, it can't be helped and if the management is not okay with that then they need a friendly reminder from OSHA about safe working conditions.

Thanks for that bit of advice.

Between CW:3, Homeworld Remastered, and XCOM, I think I'm set for strategy games for a loooooooooooong time.

There's no air conditioning where I work outside the main offices and precision machine sections.
It'll be upwards of 90F outside, easily 95+F inside the building, and the welders still have to wear long sleeved leather shirts to protect themselves from the blobs of molten steel produced by the MIG welders and the UV radiation from the TIG welders.
Usually during conditions like that the management encourages people to take frequent breaks and drink lots of water or gatorade, never sodas.
My job is maintenance though, so while I do from time to time suit up to weld things I usually avoid it during the worst of the summer heat. Plus there's always repairs and improvements to be made in the offices and precision machine sections which are air conditioned, so if I need to go cool off a bit I can easily do so.
Sometimes I wonder how the fab guys do what they do in those conditions, but most of them have worked there for years and have no problems dealing with it. They just take it easy, no paycheck is worth getting hurt.
And OSHA is a big deal too. They will fine the company into hundreds of thousands of dollars for repeat offense unsafe working conditions, and are very picky that all of the equipment is as safe to use as it can be. Needless to say I butt heads with them a bit because their definition of safety also makes the machine unproductive because the safety equipment interferes with normal usage.
