The heat is rising in Southern California, with high temperatures expected to continue through the weekend in the L.A. area.
West Hollywood is providing a cooling center today through Sunday at Plummer Park’s Community Center Senior Lounge, 7377 Santa Monica Blvd. at Fuller, the city announced in a press release. The cooling center will be open daily from 9 a.m.-7 p.m. today through Saturday and from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. on Sunday. People who use the cooling center are encouraged to plan “quiet activities” and bring books or board games.
“High heat, coupled with low humidity, can make the weather dangerous as well as uncomfortable,” the city press release notes. “The City reminds residents and community members to take precautions to keep as cool as possible throughout the warm summer months. If possible, stay out of the sun; avoid strenuous activity; drink plenty of water; and wear lightweight clothing.”
