Special Weather Statement
... Excessive heat outlook for interior sections of the San
Francisco and Monterey Bay areas for Tuesday through Thursday...
A strong ridge of high pressure building in from the Pacific will
result in very warm to hot conditions across inland portions of
the region next week. Temperatures will generally be in the 90s on
Monday and continue to warm through the middle of the week as the
high strengthens. For Tuesday through Thursday high temperatures
at many locations will be between 95 and 105 with some isolated
interior locations such as interior Monterey County and eastern
Napa County expected to warm to near 110. Temperatures during the
overnight hours will generally cool only into the 60s and lower
70s. Heat related watches... warnings... and advisories may be
issued as the event gets closer.
Stay indoors as much as possible during the warmest part of the
day. If you have to work or plan on any recreational activities
outdoors... drink plenty of water ... wear light colored clothing
and take frequent breaks from the sun. Heat can affect
anyone. However... children... the elderly... people with medical
conditions... and those engaged in strenuous outdoor activities
will be the ones most impacted by the hot weather.
