SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — The heat is on repeat for another straight day.
It's not record-breaking, but it's hot enough to set us well above where we should be this time of year. The heat peaks Friday and temperatures will drop ever-so-slightly, with the most noticeable difference inland this weekend. As the heat lingers, so will the Heat Advisory for the inland valleys. The Heat Advisory expires Friday at 7 P.M.
We're continuing to deal with periods of gusty easterly winds. With the dry air and hot temperatures, expect elevated fire danger through the end of the week.
During this Santa Ana pattern, checking cars for loose parts is essential to avoid sparking fires. In addition, those working outside should take frequent breaks in the shade and drink plenty of water. Always check the backseat of cars and never leave pets or children in vehicles; check on older adults and those without adequate cooling systems.
A trough centered over northwestern Mexico will usher in subtropical moisture on Saturday. This system will increase high-level clouds and increase humidity levels. As high pressure weakens, onshore flow will build, allowing for marine layer clouds each morning this weekend.
Near-seasonal conditions return in the middle of next week.
Friday's Highs:
Coast: 78-83
Inland: 93-98
Mountains: 82-90
Deserts: 99-101
