Major Heat Risk is expected for this Friday and Saturday with well above normal highs those days. This level of heat affects can cause heat-related illnesses for much of the population, especially those without effective cooling or hydration. Little to no relief at night; air conditioning is necessary as fans and open windows at night will not be enough.

Warming temperatures over the weekend will cause drier conditions to propagate across central California. Minimum Relative Humidity is expected between 10 and 20 percent both Friday and Saturday, and wind gusts could reach up to 20 mph. There is a 10 to 15 percent chance for thunderstorms over the Sierra Nevada Saturday and Sunday, which may bring about dry lightning in these areas with the drier air at the surface. Take precautions to mitigate fire development and spread.

With triple-digit heat anticipated for the weekend, keep in mind that area lakes and rivers are still running cold, and in some cases, may have a 30 degree difference between air and water temperature. Warm air temperatures do NOT mean warm water temperatures! Rivers in particular are running swift as dam water releases are increasing across the region. Continue to take precautions around waterways!
