LFUCG will announce any additional cooling centers as they are open.
In addition to the heat, there is another conditional threat for strong to severe storms today. Any storms that do develop will have the potential to produce gusty winds, frequent lightning, and brief heavy rainfall.
Dangerous heat and additional storm chances continue for tomorrow as well.
