Hot Weather Affects Holiday Plans

By Jim Melwert

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - With the mercury expected near triple-digits, a real-feel temperature of over 100 degrees, and an excessive heat warning until Sunday evening, who needs a grill for the burgers and hot dogs?

Some people say the heat and humidity is wilting their plans:

"Just relax, stay indoors."

"I'm sure I'll be staying in a lot this weekend, since it's going to be like 100 degrees."

Others say:

"Heat? What heat?"

"I like being outside, I don't care how hot it is."

"It doesn't bother me, just get a tan."

But Stephanie from Phoenixville has a plan:

"I have two family members with pools so I'll be in the pool a lot."

The bonus, she says, is the pool belongs to someone else so she doesn't have to worry about cleaning it.
