There are no watches, warnings, or advisories at this time.

A ridge of high pressure building over California and the Great Basin over the weekend and early next week will cause a warming trend, with a moderate probability (35 to 70 percent) to exceed 100 degrees on Sunday and for Labor Day. There is a moderate risk of heat-related illnesses to those sensitive to heat with these temperatures.
While the potential has fallen from the last few days, there remains a 10 to 15 percent chance for thunderstorms to develop along the higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada Thursday afternoon. Cloud-to-ground lightning, localized intense rainfall rates, small hail, and gusty, erratic winds are possible in and around storms.
