N.J. weather: Cooling centers open during dangerous heat wave. Find one near you. - NJ.com

UPDATE: Atlantic County libraries and senior centers are not welcoming pets at their cooling centers, a county spokeswoman said.

The hottest weather yet of the summer has descended on New Jersey with little end in sight at least for the next week, prompting counties and communities to open cooling centers to help the state’s most vulnerable residents.

With dangerous temperatures expected to climb into the mid 90s and approaching 100 degrees, heat advisories have been issued for most of the state starting Wednesday.

Libraries, senior centers and other community facilities are serving as cooling centers for those who need a respite during the extreme weather. Residents are reminded to check on neighbors who could be at high risk for heat exposure.

N.J. weather: Heat wave vulnerable populations — The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory with temperatures set to rise this week.
