Hot temperatures have led Hartford officials to open cooling centers.

As temperatures continue to top 90 degrees, Hartford city officials have announced plans to open four cooling centers for residents to get a break from the summer heat.

The North End Senior Center, South End Wellness Center, Parkville Senior Center, and the Hispanic Health Council, will be open Monday for residents who need to get out of the sun as long as a heat advisory remains in effect.

Forecasts call for continued hot temperatures on Monday.

Similar weather on Sunday resulted in the opening of cooling centers in Bridgeport and South Windsor.
