the coolest nerd you know

The record summer temperature in Central Park was a blistering 106 degrees in 1936. Well today it’s officially 103+ degrees and it feels like death.

Here’s some cool shit you can do during a heatwave in the city:

Head to a local swimming pool or beach to cool off. During heat emergencies, New York City pools and beaches are open late and often offer free or reduced admission.

Find a cooling center. During heat emergencies, New York City opens air-conditioned cooling centers around the five boroughs where residents can find a break from the heat. Find the cooling center nearest you.
