When I heard last week that both Chicago and New York had set up public buildings to accommodate people to come in an cool off, I thought that, wow, it surely must be hot there. Now with Los Angeles’ record-breaking temps, the LAFD has posted (and re-posted) on their blog a list of Los Angeles city and county cooling off stations – and no it’s not the beach.

I’ve listed the cooling stations in the extended entry for LA city. Go to the LAFD blog for cooling station listings in the county too.
