Public pools in the District will stay open longer this week to provide residents a place to cool off as daytime and evening temperatures are expected to stay the danger zone until the weekend.

The D.C. Department of Parks and Recreation reminds residents they are encouraged to stay inside if possible, but if they must venture outside, they can hit up select pools in the city during the evening.
