Yes you can. If you are outside in the heat and humidity you can suffer from dehydration in a few hours. If you exert energy you can become dehydrated very quickly. Dehydration is a very serious problem which can lead to heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and the shutting down of your bodies organs which leads to death. In sports and work where you are sweating or exerting a lot of energy it is very important to re-hydrate by drinking fluids. Your body needs food and water for a reason. If you are not exerting yourself, 24 hours may not be that detrimental but be careful. If you are using energy and have been sweating and then you stop sweating, you are probably dehydrated. Seek a cooler area, rest, and drink plenty of fluids. NOT BEER OR SODA! Water or sports drinks are better.

Can you dilute alcohol in the system by drinking water twenty four hours later?
No, on two reasons. 1.) Your body metabolises 1 unit of alcohol an hour. 1 unit is equivalent to one measure of spirits or half a pint of beer. By the time 24 hours hours has passed, most of the alcohol will have already been metabolised in your body, unless you drank more than 24 units. 2.) Drinking water does not affect the rate of alcohol breakdown at all. The only thing it will serve to do is to reduce the risk of dehydration if water is consumed as you drink alcohol.
