Temperatures are expected to soar toward the 100 degree mark this Father’s Day weekend. The City of Albany and Dougherty County have reactivated cooling stations to provide safe spaces for residents to find relief.

Temperatures are expected to stay in the mid to upper 90s into next week. We’ll update this page with any new information about the reopening of cooling stations if that occurs in the coming days.
Remember to stay hydrated and check on your neighbors – particularly the elderly and families with young children, and don’t forget to keep your pets safe with lots of water and shade. Pavement temperatures will climb higher than air temperatures and can severely burn pet paws.
