After a cool few weeks in the Bay Area, residents should anticipate a serious warm-up this weekend with some places, including Contra Costa County, expected to see highs in the 90s and even the low 100s.
According to the National Weather Service, a warming trend began Wednesday that will continue through the end of the week and will peak Saturday afternoon.
Moderate heat impacts are expected, particularly for those who are vulnerable to heat. Rapid swings from cool to hot temperatures are also expected.
High pressure building in the desert southwest is what is setting Central California up for the warm streak.
Perfect, just in time for the Clayton BBQ Cook Off.
Stay hydrated!
If you are going to be outside put 500mL bottled water in freezer night before.
Put frozen bottle in back pocket, you’ll get some contact cooling and as ice melts you’ll be able to have sips of cold water to cool your core temperature down.
Hot weather coming? Be sure to have your generators ready for the blackouts!
That is not what weatherunderground says for the next week.
Enjoyed the event. At one point they announced it was 96 degrees… Hydration was key.
