US National Weather Service is predicting temps heading for 90 degrees by Thursday.
Last year the Toledo Community stepped up within 2 hours to provide cooling stations - Senior Center offered family movies on their “big screen” TV indoors where it was much cooler, Toledo First Baptist provides games and water inside, the library advertised their climate-controlled venue.
Please keep an eye on neighbors particularly affected by high heat, make sure pets & livestock (and bees!) have adequate water out of the direct sun, avoiding those metal bowls that render drinking water near to boiling. Check out MedicineNet.com’s article on heat exhaustion to learn the signs.
Will post updates on cooling centers and how-to cooling ideas at home.
What do you do to beat the heat?
