Television meteorologists in Fort Myers, Naples and Cape Coral have been reporting on the high temperatures every day this month. They say it is the hottest summer on record in nearly ten years. And it’s not just Florida that is feeling the heat. Folks all across the nation are suffering. To help out, here are five ways to cool off in the Southwest Florida heat for TikTok Tuesday.
The heat can be deadly to both humans and animals. If you have a pet, check out some tips here to keep them safe this summer. In addition, the ideas stretch beyond the heat.

The ideas below offer everything from herbal beverages and sweet pads, to DIY air conditioning set ups for those rooms that don’t get much air. Another idea that everyone is doing, placing a bowl of ice or ice water in front of a fan. The air it blows drops significantly.
