High heat and humidity are expected on both days.

Thanks to the roasting heat and high humidity expected over the coming days, Laurel officials say they'll open the city's pools an hour early on Thursday, July 18 and Friday, July 19.

Laurel Municipal Pool (9th St. and Main St.) and the Greenview Drive Pool Complex (14403 Greenview Dr.) will now operate from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on both days.

For those looking to stay cool and dry, Prince George's County is also operating a cooling center at the Laurel-Beltsville Senior Center (7120 Contee Rd.) from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
