Temperatures soared into triple digits on Saturday, with heat index values up to 112 degrees.
Some neighbors in downtown Dallas were left scrambling in the heat after a water main break shut off water and power to Mosaic Dallas apartments in the morning.
Peterson said his power was restored around 5:00 p.m., and water wasn't expected to return for several more hours. “I don’t know how they do it. We’re over here yelling at them to keep running and running, and it’s 100-degree weather," said Marcela Mejia, whose son plays on the Solar Tremblays soccer team.
Players get plenty of water breaks during the games and trade the pitch for air conditioning between matches.
