With temperatures expected to reach 100 degrees this week, Mayor Thomas M. Menino today declared a heat emergency in the city and will expand services during this dangerous stretch of hot weather.
“The heat that we are expecting in our city this week presents a dangerous situation to many of our residents,” Mayor Menino said. “We are preparing by adding additional resources to help assist residents keep cool and healthy. I am appealing to everyone in our city to check on your neighbors, especially those who are elderly or infirmed.”
Fortunately, I’m so cool heat hardly affects me.
In my dreams. In reality, I melt away at 90 degree weather with a touch of humidity. Triple digit heat just about makes me buckle over in pain.
Time to stock up on ice cream.
