The heat is on.

As temperatures across Delmarva reach into the 90’s the Worcester Commission on Aging Adult Day Care Center in Snow Hill is opening up as a cooling station.

Development Coordinator Debbie Ritter tells WBOC seniors should use fans at home if they do not have air conditioning.

Also, they should be sure to drink plenty of water during the day.

In addition, Ritter says that the elderly should be conscious of how prescription drugs interact with the heat.
