☀️ Good morning! Today is Friday, June 12. Danielle, here. Thankfully, we’re getting some minor relief from the heat, as the National Weather Service is lifting the excessive heat warning tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.

Temps will still be over 100, though – but we’re sort of used to that, I guess.

💃🏽 Ever been to a water park at night? Join Fresno Street Eats at Island After Dark this evening from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. Tickets start at $29.
