Excessive Heat Warnings Issued Across California

A significant heatwave is sweeping across California, with excessive heat warnings issued for various regions including the Bay Area, San Diego, and Santa Clarita. Temperatures are forecasted to reach triple digits in areas such as Coachella Valley, where highs could hit 113 degrees, and parts of the East Bay and Tri-Valley regions. Coastal areas will experience milder temperatures, but inland valleys are expected to see highs in the upper 90s to mid-100s. The National Weather Service warns that these conditions could lead to dangerous fire risks due to low humidity levels. Residents are advised to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous outdoor activities, and be aware of heat-related illnesses. While a slight cooling trend may occur later in the week, significantly lower temperatures are not expected immediately.
