You’ll want to make sure you hang out by a pool or air conditioned space all weekend-long.
Always important to keep an eye out for young children, pregnant women, people with chronic illnesses, seniors, and pets during heat waves - as they are the most vulnerable.
Temperatures will start to slowly drop as we move into Monday.
