STORYLINE:
Houston resident Esmeralda Herrera brought her two kids to Levy Park to cool off in the summer heat. The weather forecast for Monday is humid, with highs around 95 degrees Fahrenheit. “I find Houston, very hot in general, whenever, from June to September. But this year is especially humid.” She says.
Daniel Zermeno is 79 years old. He will turn eighty later this year. His wife said he doesn’t like coming out very much and is surprised he agreed to go to the park today. Daniel told The Associated Press,” I don’t think it’s been this hot, but the thing is, we’re all changed. I guess the globe has changed; the icebergs are melting.”
“It’s more important for people who are going to be outside to stay hydrated because heat, humidity, and low winds, even if you’re in good shape and not really acclimated to it, it could be a danger, ” said Bruce Thoren, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Oklahoma. “It happens quickly.”
