KERN COUNTY â Summer is right around the corner and that means hot weather is on the way. Kern County s Cooling Center season is set to start on June 1, 2021.
Keep in mind, the Cooling Centers are only open on specific days during the summer when temperatures forecast are set to hit certain highs.
In the Kern River Valley if it is hotter than 105 degrees, Cooling Centers will open. It must be hotter than 108 degrees in the desert communities in order for the centers to open. If it reaches 95 degrees or warmer near Frazier park, the Cooling Centers will open there, too.
