FOX 9's Adam Klepp puts it to the test

YUMA, Ariz. (KECY, KYMA) - Temperatures in Yuma Friday exceeded 110 degrees.

When it's that hot out, temperatures inside of cars can reach up to 150 degrees or higher.

And it turns out, that's hot enough to cook a burger all the way through.

These burgers were put in a car around 1 p.m., and by 5 o'clock they were fully cooked.

While the heat provides fun opportunities to go to the pool, or the river, or cook food in your car, it can also be dangerous.

Here is a list of locations in Yuma open to the public for water and air conditioning.

HOPE Inc., with their new location on 791 S. 4th Ave.

National Community Health Partners, at 255 W. 24th St.

Crossroads Mission Thrift Store, located at 550 W. 8th St., and the Crossroads Mission, on 944 S. Arizona Ave.

WACOG, located at 1235 S. Redondo Center Drive.

The Walmart located on 8151 E. 32nd St.

Locations are also available in Somerton and San Luis, including San Luis Walk-In Clinics, and the Family Behavior Integrated Health Services, on 1130 E. Main St.
