Rochester, N.Y. - The temperature will climb today and that means the city's "Cool Sweep" program will chill anybody brave enough to walk through the water spray from triggered fire hydrants.
Spray parks and hydrants around the city will be opened for kids to cool off.
Families are also welcome at a number of high school pools.
Folks can also read in air-conditioned libraries.
