Temperatures are expected to rise to dangerous levels in Connecticut on Sunday with the arrival of the first heat wave of the summer. The National Weather Service has issued an extreme heat warning in effect from 11 a.m. on Sunday to 8 p.m. on Tuesday amid dangerously hot conditions with heat index values up to 110 degrees, according to officials. Sunday is expected to be partly sunny and hot, with a high near 97 degrees, according to the NWS. Heat index values are expected to climb as high as 105. Monday is also expected to be sunny and hot, with a high near 100. Things cool down a bit Monday night with mostly clear skies and a low around 75. But things heat up again on Tuesday with a high near 101 degrees. Officials said that after Tuesday, temperatures are expected to fall, as the week progresses. Because of the extreme heat, Gov. Ned Lamont has announced he is directing the state's Extreme Hot Weather Protocol to be activated beginning at 12 p.m. on Sunday, and remaining in effect through at least 8 p.m. on Wednesday, his office said in a statement. While enacted, a system is set up for state agencies, municipalitie, and other partners to coordinate with United Way 211 to make sure that information regarding cooling centers is available statewide, providing a location for those in need of relief. 'It looks like we are about to experience our first heat wave of the season, and when temperatures get this hot, people who are most vulnerable, especially those who are of a certain age or who have certain medical conditions, should take the necessary precautions to stay cool,' Lamont said in a statement. 'We are working with our partners to get cooling centers open across Connecticut. Anyone who needs a place to get some relief can call 211 or visit to get directed to their nearest cooling center. Additionally, our friends at United Way 211 can help connect anyone in need with the transportation necessary to get to a cooling center,' he said. Several Connecticut cities and towns have already announced their cooling shelter locations and times. Hartford will be opening 13 cooling centers for residents starting on Sunday at 12 p.m. through Thursday in response to the dangerous heat. The city said that the Hartford Fire Department will also be distributing water to residents throughout the city. 'The forecast over the next few days calls for temperatures exceeding 90 degrees, with a heat index that could range between 100–105 degrees, so we are once again opening our cooling centers to make sure our residents stay safe and cool,' Arulampalam said in a statement. 'We also want residents to remember to stay hydrated and please stay out of the sun during the hottest parts of the day. Don't forget to check in on your loved ones and neighbors, as some individuals are at greater risk for heat-related illnesses than others,' the mayor continued. Hartford cooling center locations include the Downtown Library, Albany Library, Barbour Library, Boubless Library at Rawson, Camp Field Library, Dwight Library, Park Street Library at the Lyric, Ropkins Library, South End Senior Center, North End Senior Center, Center Church, Pope Park Recreational Center and Parker Memorial, according to officials.
