    Another record-breaking heat day in South Florida with highs today in the mid-90's and heat index values making it feel like it's over one hundred degrees. Flora Beal with Miami-Dade animal services says they're taking steps to keep pets cool at their overflow facility in Medley. She says they have been putting ice in the water, using inflatable pools and fans and only walking dogs for about ten minutes in the morning and when the sun goes down at night. Pets are also being monitored for heavy breathing.
