If You Can't Beat the Heat, Enjoy it

Heat be damned, locals braved the 90-plus degrees in Red Bank Friday.

It's plenty hot outside, but early afternoon in Red Bank saw plenty of people out and about, enjoying the sun despite a temperature hovering around the bottom 90's throughout the day.

Down by Marine Park plenty of crabbers and fishermen occupied the riverfront, tossing chicken and fish heads into the water to attract underwater attention. And if there's anything crabs like it's chicken. And fish. And hot dogs - so we've heard.

So if you're hesistant about going out in the heat, check out these pictures. It's safe, relatively, as long as you dress appropriately and drink plenty of water. And after you finish walking around outside, head to the borough's downtown, where the AC is cranking in every restaurant and shop.

Staying hydrated is indeed key. However, for many, sunbolock is key as well, particularly for children.
