The Big Question This Weekend — How Will You Beat the Heat?

Temperatures locally this weekend are expected to flirt with 110 degrees. How do you intend to stay cool in these temperatures?

 

If you thought Thursday's temperature of 97 degrees was hot, you might want to brace yourself for what's to come. By Monday, 98 degrees in and around the Gwinnett and Barrow county area is likely to be considered a cool down.

According to Weather.com, Friday is expected to be 105, Saturday 107 and Sunday 103. Welcome to summer. These temperatures are considered dangerous, so don't forget to take care of family, friends and neighbors who may not be able to take care of themselves. This includes the elderly and, of course, pets.

With this heat predicted, how do you plan to deal with the extreme temperatures expected this weekend? Tell us in comments.

We took the teens bowling last night ... SWEET AIR CONDITIONING! Refills on cold drinks, a little popcorn to share, rock and roll music and glowing shoe laces. And I beat the Mister, making it an extra "cool" time!
