Philadelphians find different ways to beat the heat on Sunday
Many like Meredith Henry know exactly what to do to stay cool as the temperatures rise. She packed her backpack with several cool water bottles.
Meanwhile, some like Jamie Magnotta were left to simply sweat it out as her son enjoyed the Phillies Carnival ahead of first pitch.
“It’s hot, yet they don’t seem to be affected by it, nope. He’s having a blast jumping around, they’re going to do flips,” Magnotta said.
As the sun began to set, many came to Spruce Street Harbor Park hoping to cool off along the water.
Water ice, ice cream and a cozy seat along the Delaware waterfront made for a nice escape, said 9-year-old Elayna, who was relaxing with her family along the river.
“We came here because it was cool here,” she said.
Whatever the strategy, those in Philly say buckle up with the brunt of the hot weather still to come.
