Scorching temperatures in many areas over Memorial Day weekend sent several people to emergency rooms for heat overexposure. Baltimore; Laredo, Texas; Lousiville, Ky.; and and Raleigh, N.C., all tied record high temperatures Monday, and more heat is on the way.Air conditioning and portable air conditioners can get expensive, so what are things you can do to avoid the heat?

"The hottest part of the country will be the mid-Atlantic, or the corridor from Philadelphia to South Carolina," Tom Kines, senior meteorologist atAccuweather, told ABC News. "Temperatures will be in the mid to upper 90s, and could reach 100 degrees in some areas."
