As summer swings into high gear, Mountain View and other parts of the Bay Area are warming up, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a heat advisory for the weekend.
The heat advisory is expected to be in effect starting 10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 8 and will last until 10 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 9, according to the National Weather Service.
To help community members cool off, Mountain View is publicizing three air-conditioned locations.
Police Services Fire Administration Building, 1000 Villa St. The lobby will be open to the public 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Mountain View Community Center, 201 S. Rengstorff Ave. The lobby will be open to the public 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Sunday.
Mountain View Public Library, 585 Franklin St. The library will be open to the public 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
The Mountain View Fire Department, in a press release, is also encouraging residents to keep hydrated, stay in air-conditioned buildings, limit outdoor activities during the hottest times of the day, avoid leaving children or pets in cars and be aware of pavement temperatures when walking dogs.




Google says the high for Saturday will be 78 and 86 for Sunday. Warm? Yes. Heat advisory? No. Why are we having one?
