Father's Day Forecast: Hot & Mostly Dry
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — This Sunday, June 15, is Father's Day. And if you're planning celebrations or maybe a cookout, it's looking dry. However, it's also looking hot. Highs at just under a week out look to be in the upper 80s and even potentially the low 90s. Going to be a hot one, so plan to take plenty of breaks in the air conditioning and stay hydrated! The good news, though, rain and storm chances remain minimal at this point, so it should be great weather to cool off in the pool or take a dip in the lake. A non-zero shower/storm chance, though, as we see the potential of an isolated shower/storm or two by the afternoon/evening hours. Not looking widespread, and most areas remain rain-free. Be sure to check back with the KCAU 9 weather team throughout the week for the latest updates. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Sunny skies, high temps attract children to the area's few swimming pools
Children of all ages splashed in the pool Tuesday afternoon as the thermometer broke 80 degrees. The swimming pool at Heise Park in Galion had nearly 200 guests within the first hour of the day, according to Emily Ball, one of the pool's managers. "For hot days, that's pretty normal," Ball said. The pool's season began Monday after cool weather pushed it back, said Cindy Bays, director of operations for the Galion YMCA. "The temperature needs to be 71 to open, so we got delayed," Bays said. "We had 169 people yesterday, so it wasn't bad." With a forecast into the 80s on Wednesday and then the high 70s for the foreseeable future, pool staff expect their summer rush has arrived. More: Fun in the sun can boost risk for skin cancer Galion's swimming hole is one of only a few community pools in the area to be open this summer. "We are very fortunate that the city basically funds it and we manage it," Bays said. "We enjoy managing it and running it." Mansfield and Crestline lost their pools to disrepair in recent years, and Shelby's pool is closed so that a leak can be fixed sometime this summer. With no community pools open in Richland County, residents can either drive west to pools in Galion and Bucyrus or east to Ashland.

"We have more attractions than some surrounding pools do," Ball said. "Especially the slide. A lot of kids really like that." The pool at Heise Park in Galion is open 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Friday and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. More: Keep core temps low to avoid heat exhaustion or stroke this summer Admission is $1 for children 5 and younger, $3 for children 6-17, $4 for adults 18-54 and $3 for anyone 55 and older. Anyone visiting to supervise children can enter for $1. Season passes are available as well. Resident season passes are $42.50 for children 5 and younger, $50 for children 6-17, $70 for adults and $110 for families. For those who live outside Galion, season passes are $85 for children 5 and younger, $100 for children 6-17, $140 for adults and $175 for families. The pool is available for rent during select times outside of normal business hours. One-hour rentals on weekdays are $140, two hours on a weekend are $210 and three hours on a weekend are $275. "It's rented nearly every weekend," Bays said. "Then, randomly, we have a couple during the week." The pool will be open every day until Aug. 10, weather permitting. To learn more about the pool, call the Galion YMCA at 419-468-7754. ztuggle@ 419-564-3508 This article originally appeared on Mansfield News Journal: Temps in the 80s send children to the few area pools open this year
