This is the first time this year that the Extreme Hot Weather Protocol has being activated until Wednesday, June 25 at 8:00 P.M. The current forecast calls for temperatures to exceed 90 degrees, with a heat index that could range from between 100 to 105 degrees.
The purpose of activating the protocol is to ensure that the most vulnerable populations receive protection from the hot conditions. While enacted, a system is set up for state agencies, municipalities, and other partners to coordinate with United Way 2-1-1 to make sure that information regarding cooling centers is available statewide, providing a location for those in need of relief.
Cooling centers will be available throughout the state. Anyone in need of a place to get out of the heat can locate their nearest cooling center by calling 2-1-1 or online at https://www.211ct.org/
Below is a list of cooling centers in Manchester.
