As temperatures are projected to move into the 90s with high humidity this weekend, Xcel Energy is offering you some tips to help you find relief from the heat, as well as your energy bill.

Yesterday I was telling you about how crazy high my air conditioning bill was for last month. I like to keep my AC set at about 68 degrees in the summer because I like to be able to escape the heat...plus, the fact that I'm pregnant also plays a part too.

The mom in me thinks you should know these things before you go outside today.

As the weather gets warmer, all of us need a few summer reminders, wear sunscreen and drink plenty of water. But what do you do if you see a dog trapped in a hot car?

Today is expected to be the hottest day with heat indices well past 110 degrees. There are some things you should know if you plan to be outside today.

It's going to be H.O.T.--HOT. We're under an excessive heat warning now through Friday. So, what can you do to keep yourself cool here in central Minnesota?

School is out, it's hot and EVERYONE seems to go to the splash pad. That's not a bad idea, but here are a few ways to beat the heat at home without a pool.

I am here wishing you and your family a happy Fourth of July! Independence Day is statistically the most dangerous U.S. holiday, with the highest report of injuries out of all the major holidays. I know, I know, I'm shocked too that it isn't St. Patty's day with all that green beer and those crazy leprechauns...but apparently that's not the case. So please, BE SAFE, and have fun!

The current temperature in the 98 Country studio is 956 degrees. Ok, ok that could be slightly dramatic...but just saying "it's hot in here" really doesn't do it justice. It's so hot I could host a Bikram yoga class in here, seriously. To make matters worse, I wore skinny jeans today, and now I feel like Ross on that episode of 'Friends' where he wears leather pants to a girls house... R

I'm sure you've heard this a few times over the last few weeks. "Hot enough for ya?" Yes, it has been hot - so hot in fact that people are scrambling all across the country to beat the heat. Some are taking to the beach, some are just staying in the air conditioning and some are cooling off in the backyard. But what about our pets? Don't they deserve to cool off too?

Ahhh, sweet, cool breezes…finally, the heat has broken and today’s high of 85 seems so reasonable after what we’ve been through for the last few days. Though cooler temperatures probably averted a trip to the loony bin for some of us, I did grab my opportunity yesterday while it was still scorching to bake some cookies in my car. Yeah, you heard me; I baked cookies in my car!
