City of Cleveland opens 8 cooling centers as more hot temperatures roll in

CLEVELAND — Scorching heat has once again made its way to Northeast Ohio, with temperatures expected to hover in the 90s throughout Tuesday and Wednesday.

Even with Lake Erie bringing those temps down a tad, Cleveland is still right in the thick of things, so the city has decided to open up eight separate cooling centers to help residents stay safe.
