Icon4 Expecting a HEAT WAVE the next 3-4 days! Stay Cool...

HOT ~ HOT ~ HOT

Humidity adds approximately 6-8 degrees to the temperature!

A strong ridge over the southwest will continue to bring very warm conditions to Southern California through the weekend. The coolest conditions will be found near the immediate coast, where highs will be in the lower 80’s. If possible limit outdoor activities to the morning and evening hours, but if you have to venture outside in the afternoon make sure you take regular breaks and drink plenty of water.

Stay Cool & Safe out there!

How HOT is it going to be where you live?

It's funny, I picked this area of the world to live in because I can't stand the heat, and no not because I was born hear. We get pockets of humidity and heat but for the most part they are short lived and temporary. The thing with cool or cold weather is you can always put on a sweater, in the heat there is little you can do other then find a beach that front's the north Atlantic current and jump in or hibernate in a processed and sealed conditioned air environment. I just couldn't live that way 6 months of the year, like southern FLA or the Dessert South West (sorry John, AZGUY you NE quitter)

I love the tropics in February and in March but I can't stand oppressive heat and I melt in humidity so I leave those extreme zones to my more hearty brethren and I toast to your pioneer spirit!!

It's been comfortable 115 all week, which is a nice break from the higher temps we had last week.

117 yesterday, 115 today. Sometimes I question why I live in the middle of the desert.

Saw 112 on the car thermometer today. Weatherman said it only got to 110 plus 40% humidity. No mater how you look at it, its 100 and too many!

I love heat. Just got back from Canada and was surprised at how nice and warm SF is right now - even at midnight. Was expecting a wall of fog.

Couldn't agree with you more! I wish I was in my house in Montana this week. Unfortunately I am stuck in NYC for work this week. I will be back in MT in two weeks though. It's going to be mid 90s tomorrow with high humidity.Yuck!

Living close to the beach here in SD I am blessed by the ocean breeze... It's called "Nature's air conditioning" by the weather people. They can call it whatever they want, I am VERY GLAD I live here

I will take heat over snow and ice any day. I don't mind sweating, it's good for your body.
