Spokane Must Now Open Cooling Centers at 95 Degrees

Credit Doug Nadvornick/SPR Cooling Centers opened in Spokane Public Libraries and at the Looff Carousel today and will be open until the temperature drops below 95 degrees. The cooling centers re-opened after the Spokane City Council updated an ordinance outlining when the city needs to provide shelter – during heat, winter and smoke events. Councilwoman Lori Kinnear called on the mayor’s administration to plan ahead for those events, which are likely to become more common due to the worsening climate crisis. “We lost 20 people this last heat wave and I’m determined we should not lose anymore because of this excessive heat.”
