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

This evening...Temperatures were well above seasonal averages
inland this afternoon while the coastal areas were near or a few
degrees above average. A couple of locations in the lower deserts
broke daily records as temperatures there reached 120 degrees at a
couple of locations. Mostly variable mid and high clouds with
only a few low clouds forming offshore at this hour. Patchy low
cloud coverage is expected tonight in the coastal areas due to a
very shallow marine layer.

From previous discussion...
An upper level high pressure system will continue to expand west
into Thursday, becoming more centered over Southern California.

With the upper level high expanding west across Southern California
through Thursday, above average temperatures are expected to
continue for inland locations. Highs through Thursday are
expected to be 5 to 10 degrees above average for inland locations.
High temperatures will range from the 70s near the coast; to the
90s to 105 for the Inland Empire; and 114 to 118 for the lower
deserts. In the mountains below 5000 ft, highs are expected to be
in the mid-80 to upper 90s. Widespread moderate HeatRisk is
expected for the valleys and mountains, with widespread major
HeatRisk in the low deserts. Make sure you`re staying hydrated,
seeking shade, and avoiding strenuous activity during the hottest
parts of the day if possible.

High pressure aloft will remain over Southern California Friday into
early next week, but will weaken slightly and continue to move
westward over the Pacific. Highs on Friday are expected to be 4 to 8
degrees cooler than Thursday across the area. For the weekend into
the middle of next week, there will be minor day to day fluctuations
in highs temperatures. NBM high temperatures for the coast and
valleys are forecast to be up to 5 degrees below average with the
deserts around 5 degrees above average. The marine layer will deepen
Sunday through Tuesday with night and morning low clouds extending
inland to the western valleys through the middle of next week.
