As this is being written, it's 90 degrees in South Providence! And, possibly by coincidence, we lost power in our building for a little while. But everything is working okay now, including the air conditioner.
Wow! The heat is on! At least for a couple days!
Some helpful links to help deal with the heat, particularly if you don't have air conditioning.
Providence Mayor Angel Taveras and the Providence Emergency Management Agency have a listing of the city's cooling centers as well as hot weather tips. Click here.
The Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency has a listing of cooling centers outside of Providence here.
If you take the bus, today (Wednesday) is an air quality alert day and you can ride the bus for free. Details here.
Last we heard, this heat will be short-lived, and a more moderate weekend is on the way.
Welcome summer!
