Firefighters in Tennessee cool kids down with a fire hose

KINGSPORT, Tenn. (CBS, KYMA/KECY) - Some Tennessee firefighters really put the "fun" into a local Fun Fest, when they sprayed kids with water on a sweltering day in Kingsport.

The footage was streamed live on July 22 by the Kingsport Fire Department, who said, "We've got the water flowing, we've got the kids screaming and yelling. There's all kinds of beach balls."

The firefighters were spraying the kids during the Kingsport Fun Fest.

The National Weather Service said that "hot and muggy" conditions would affect the area Tuesday, with "a heat index around 100 degrees at times."
