Another Toasty One

Air Quality Report (As of 7:00AM)
Good to moderate.

High pressure will continue to bring warm/hot temperatures into the workweek. Things stay warm over the next couple days, before somewhat cooler weather next weekend.

*Heat Advisory*  In effect through 9PM tonight.

-High temperatures are forecast to range from 15 to 25
degrees above normal Sunday and Monday. Inland locations are
forecast to range in the mid 90s to low 100s, locally to mid
100s in the hottest spots. Bayshore locations including Oakland
and San Francisco are forecast to range in the 90s to around
100.

-Majority of the San Francisco Bay Area & The Santa Cruz Mtns

-Increased risk of heat related illnesses such as heat
exhaustion and heat stroke can occur due to prolonged exposure
to hot temperatures. People most vulnerable include those who
spend extended periods outdoors, those without air conditioning,
young children, the elderly, and those with chronic illness.

-Monday will be hotter than Sunday. Offshore
winds will suppress the sea breeze and bring warm to hot
conditions closer than usual to the coast, and in addition, may
push wildfire smoke from the August and Red Salmon fires back
into the area. Limited relief near the coast with sharp
temperature changes only a few miles inland. Bayshore
locations, especially those north of the San Mateo Bridge, will
be the most impacted by the offshore flow during this heat
event. Onshore flow is expected to begin returning to the coast
later Monday but may not arrive until peak heating has already
occurred.

*RED FLAG WARNING*
The National Weather Service in Monterey has issued a Red Flag Warning for the Diablo Range in Santa Clara County through Monday night.

Northeast winds 10 to 20 mph on Saturday will increase Saturday night into Sunday morning with frequent gusts 40 to 50 mph.

Lowering humidity on Saturday to less than 25% with little or no humidity recovery Saturday night. RH values staying steady from 10-20% Sunday into early next week.

Any fires that develop will spread rapidly in the hot, dry and windy weather.

A Fire Weather Watch means that critical fire weather conditions are forecast to occur. Listen for later forecasts and possible Red Flag Warnings.

Monday: Hot weather, with loads of sunshine! Coastal highs will be in the 70s to upper 80s with 90s to lower 100s inland. Breezy at times.

Overnight: A few low clouds possible, otherwise clear. Lows mostly in the 40s-50s.

Tuesday: Hot weather, with loads of sunshine! Coastal highs will be in the 70s to upper 80s with 90s to lower 100s inland. Breezy at times.
