Temperatures To Flirt w/100 Degrees

A July heat wave across the Inland Northwest is going to strengthen today through Thursday, keeping temperatures in the 90s and perhaps triple digits. A weak upper-level low pressure area that brought thunderstorms to the region Monday is moving to the east, allowing a persistent high pressure system to rebuild along the West Coast. Monday’s high hit 95 at Spokane International Airport before a thunderstorm cooled the temperature back to the 70s after 5 p.m. ... The forecasted highs for the Spokane airport are 95 today, 98 on Wednesday and 95 on Thursday. ... A high of 100 degrees is expected Wednesday in downtown Spokane. Coeur d’Alene will have highs of 90 today, 95 on Wednesday and 91 on Thursday/Mike Prager, SR. More here.

Question: What do you do to stay cool in heat like this?
