Today is going to be another hot one with temps pushing triple digits. King County has put together tips on how to beat the heat. Their first tip is to spend more time in air conditioned places. While Ballard doesn’t have an official “cooling station,” the library does have air conditioning. We’re told that Loyal Heights Community Center (2101 NW 77th St) also has air conditioning, although the Ballard Community Center (6020 28th Ave NW) does not.

If you have a few bucks to spend you could go to the movies (Majestic Bay movie times here) or hang out in one of the many restaurants, pubs or coffee shops with a/c. King County also says to drink plenty of liquids and limit outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day.
