.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

Temperatures at 1 PM were running anywhere from 3 to 12 degrees
cooler than yesterday, with some mountain locations a degree or two
warmer. Overall, temperatures hit their peak yesterday and although
hot conditions will be maintained into early next week for inland
locations, it`s unlikely conditions will be as hot as they were on
Thursday. Ensemble guidance is indicating an increase in
precipitable water for the lower deserts on Saturday, which would
result in a lower high temperature reading. That will quickly be
followed by a decrease in precipitable water for early next week.
Chances of exceeding 110 degrees on Saturday in the low desert are
80 to 90 percent, with chances increasing to 95 to 100 percent for
Sunday through Tuesday. Chances of exceeding 115 degrees are 30 to
40 percent Sunday through Tuesday and under 15 percent for Saturday.
Current forecast has high temperatures 110 to 115 degrees into early
next week and maintains fairly widespread major HeatRisk.

The marine layer will deepen slightly over the weekend and become
more uniform in coverage. That should help moderate temperatures for
the coast, inland Orange County, and San Diego valleys. The marine
layer is not expected to deepen enough to reach into the Inland
Empire, maintaining areas of moderate HeatRisk through the weekend.
High pressure aloft combined with a shallow marine layer will
maintain hot conditions in the mountains. Highs there will be in the
80s to 90s with widespread moderate HeatRisk. If you`re planning to
be outside over the weekend in the Inland Empire, mountains, or
deserts make sure you stay hydrated and seek plenty of shade if
you`re doing recreational activities.

Gradual cooling trend will prevail next week. By Tuesday, high
temperatures will be near normal west of the mountains and 5 to 8
degrees above average in the deserts. High temperatures on Thursday
will be a few to around 5 degrees below average for the coast and
valleys and a few degrees above average for the deserts. Widespread
near to below average temperatures are expected by Friday. Night and
morning coastal low clouds will spread into the far western valleys
late each night.
