List: Fort Bend Co. offering these cooling centers for residents trying to beat the heat

FORT BEND COUNTY, Texas - As temperatures reach possibly record-breaking levels, Fort Bend County is offering residents in need several cooling centers across the area.

Heat indices are expected to enter the triple digits this weekend, so Fort Bend Co. has a number of facilities as Emergency Cooling Centers Saturday and Sunday.

"I advise Fort Bend County residents to prepare for the intense temperatures, I strongly encourage those who are at high risk, children, and the elderly to stay inside air-conditioned buildings during these high temperatures," said Fort Bend County Judge KP George.
