Extreme heat is expected for the area. Because of the humidity, it will feel hotter.
The Anne Arundel County Department of Health reminds residents that most county facilities have cooling relief spaces available. County Police stations will be open and have community rooms available for those needing relief from the heat.
- Central Services is fully staffed to address building temperature issues. Because HVAC systems may struggle with the extreme heat, departments are encouraged to offer telework, if possible, to reduce heat generated by electronics and lighting in office buildings.
The City of Annapolis will activate cooling centers for temporary relief from the heat. Drinking water will be available at all sites.
