Nine Cooling Centers Open Around Los Angeles During Extreme Heat Wave

The nine city cooling centers join over 100 LA County locations to give SoCal residents a safe place to go during the extreme heat.

Stay hydrated! The more hydrated you are, the more effective your body will be at keeping you cool. Drink water – not fizzy and alcoholic drinks, which will dehydrate you.

Wear lightweight, light-colored natural fabrics like cotton and linen, as these will help your skin breathe and let your sweat evaporate, cooling you down. Use a fan to circulate air from open windows. Keep your blinds or curtains drawn during the day, so your home doesn’t heat up while you’re out. Turn off big appliances and help prevent brown-outs!

Keep some wet wipes in your bag so you can freshen up your hands, face and neck if you get hot or clammy.
