Emergency, water on floors

Hi everyone,
We had standing water in one place on our wood floors last night, about 2 feet in diameter. The edging of some of the flooring is starting to rise up. I have fans blowing on it and a dehumidifier there now, right after wiping it up.
What I'm wondering is, should I use a hairdryer on the edges to quickly get the water out, or will that cause greater warping or cracking? I'd like to do it ASAP if needed, but afraid to cause more damage. Thank you!
