Brown County

Emergency Management leaders recommend using public areas to cool off and find free drinking water. Local libraries, malls, movie theaters and restaurants are all good options to seek shelter from the heat wave. Brown County Emergency Management is on standby to set up cooling shelters if deemed necessary for the public. 

Manitowoc County

The Manitowoc Public Health Department suggests the use of public buildings including malls, libraries or senior centers to stay cool. Leaders with the department also suggest staying with family or neighbors who have air conditioning during days with above average temperatures.
