It's sweltering hot. We know. But don't let your desperation to cool down short-circuit your better judgment. Not all swimming situations are created equal, and some can get you into hot water when it comes to your health. Lakes, pools, and even the ocean can be dangerous places that land you in the emergency room if you aren't careful. So before you slather on the sunscreen and pack your beach bag, review this list of red flags. These six signs are clear warnings that what might look like a day of summer fun could spell big trouble.
