Cooling centers open as extreme heat blankets Detroit Metro

NWS wants everyone to keep an eye out for heat exposure: symptoms include being faint or dizzy, excessive sweating, nausea, rapid or weak pulse, and muscle cramps. 

If you see someone or you experience these symptoms, get som cold water, find some air conditioning, and get some cold water on your skin.

If the symptoms are worse, it could be heat stroke. Those symptoms include throbbing headache, confusion, no sweating, body temperature over 103, nausea or vomiting, rapid or strong pulse, and being unconscious. 

If you see that - call 911 immediately. Get them somewhere cooler but do not give them anything to drink. Emergency responders will help with that.

There are multiple cooling centers open throughout the area if you know someone in need. The city of Livonia says they'll do whatever they can to help people in need.

“Whenever the heat goes beyond an excessive level, we make the recreation center available to people who don’t have air conditioning or don’t have power or don’t have respite from the heat,” said Kristin Houchins the Communications and Marketing manager for the city of Livonia. “Even if one person shows up, we still want to keep doing it. It’s good for residents to have somewhere to go. On the flip side, we use it as a warming center in the winter."

We'll update this list below as we get them:
