Aurora pools, splash pads packed as heatwave grips the region this week

Aurora residents are flocking to city pools and splash pads as a heatwave brings triple-digit temperatures and high fire danger. The city has not yet activated cooling centers, which open at 100°F or higher, but Denver has opened nearly 50. Residents praised the splash pads and pools for cooling down, while officials emphasized cooling centers are available for all, not just homeless individuals.
