It's hot, the river's not. Why not take a dip? Folks lazing around the Patapsco River.

Mark Shrader caught these folks spending a lazy day on the Patapsco River. And it's no wonder, temperatures have been in the triple digits for days, and today will feel no different.

The high temperature will reach about 95 degrees today, and feel more like 100 with the humidity factored in, according to the National Weather Service.

Why not take a dip yourself?

Is it safe to cool down in the Patapsco? I see many folks heading to do just that in the area off River Road in Ellicott City, but last I heard, there had been substantial sewage spills into the river that rendered it unsafe.
