It's a scorcher this weekend but the cool-down options will be limited at Westchester County's Willson's Woods Park in Mount Vernon.

The main pool was forced to close after an underground pipe in the wave pool burst on Wednesday, County Executive George Latimer announced. 

That left only the spray deck, the aqua playground and the slides open for children. The county is waiving the fees to use those parts of the park during this first official weekend of the summer.

The park's DeMatteo Terrace remains open as do the picnic areas.

Latimer said the county is working with a contractor to determine the extent of the problem and it was not yet known how long the pool would be closed.
