With all the heat, the pools and lakes have been seeing an uptick in patrons that have been visiting.  Many pools such as the YMCA in Taylorville, the Taylorville Pool over at Manners Park and the Aquatic Center in Shelbyville have been very busy with people trying to beat the heat. Many fire stations have turned into cooling centers and people are taking extra precautions as temps on Friday and into the weekend rose to the mid-90s.

Alex Fisher with Shelbyville Family Aquatic says that it has been very busy.

Temps this week are expected to cool before rising again next weekend.
