Message from City of Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris:

"The health and safety of you and your loved ones is extremely important. Due to the current heat wave, we are providing tips on how to stay healthy during hot weather. Research tells us that once temperatures reach 104 degrees, the heat can cause significant health consequences if nothing is done to decrease our body temperature. A few simple ways to beat the heat include: staying inside air conditioned buildings; drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day; and limiting outdoor activities to when it’s coolest, such as during the morning or the evening hours. Be safe and stay cool!"

Additionally, the City of Lancaster’s Cooling Center at MOAH is open through July 31.
