This Wednesday didn’t bring any relief, hitting 94 degrees in Orange County and up to 100 degrees in the Los Angeles area.
“Its crazy, I don’t like hot weather. I stay indoors, don’t go outside, drink water, eat ice cream, and turn on the AC,” said Santa Ana College student Cecila Isias. “The heat makes me sick.”
Not everyone is feeling the same way about the heat.
“I like the hot weather, its beautiful” said Santa Ana College Student Asuca Lopez.
