If high temperatures and humidity have you seeking heat relief, here are some places to cool off:

1. Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom are open for the 2013 season. The water park features dozens of slides, pools, rivers and water play areas. Wildwater Kingdom is open 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. this weekend. Daily tickets start at $39.99 and can be purchased online.

2. Hang out and cool down at one of Upper Macungie's many ice cream purveyors. There's Premise Maid, Cold Stone Creamery, Primo Cafe & Gelateria and Friendly's to take all of all your ice cream needs.

3. Watching penguins splash around at the Lehigh Valley Zoo is a cool way to spend some time. You might also catch a glimpse of the zoo's new baby bison.

4. Do you know there's a nudist camp nearby? Sunny Rest Resort near Palmerton offers a relaxed, clothes-free atmosphere if you dare to go bare.

5. Summer blockbuster movie season is here and you can chill in a local theater watching "Iron Man 3," "Star Trek: Into Darkness," "After Earth" and more.
