Above normal temps remain
While our long duration heatwave has finally come
to an end daytime temperatures still remain above normal going
forward. Expect highs mainly in the 80s to middle 90s for the
warmest spots. Lot cooler along the coast, where low clouds and
fog will keep it in the upper 50s to middle 60s into the
weekend. Overall, not much change into next week, as high
pressure centered to our east will maintain dry condition, with
warm temperatures inland. But at least it won't be as hot as
recent days.
