With extremely high temperatures forecasted for this week in South Hadley, it will be important to stay cool.
The South Hadley Public Library, located at 2 Canal Street, and the Senior Center, located at 45 Dayton Street, are both designated cooling shelters for those who need to seek relief from the heat.
