PHOENIX â With temperatures forecast to be in the upper 90s most of the weekend with the potential to reach 100 degrees for the first time this year on Saturday some may be looking for ways to beat the heat, whether that s at the water park or indoors where it s air-conditioned.
ABC15 understands that everyone s comfort level is different and is not endorsing any of these activities listed.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said people should continue to avoid large gatherings and wear a mask when unable to socially distance themselves. Masks are not recommended when swimming or in water. There is also no evidence that the COVID-19 virus can transfer via a swimming pool, hot tub, beach or lake, according to the CDC.
