Southern California's inland areas could see triple-digit temperatures all weekend as a high-pressure system means a brutal heat wave.
The heat dome parked over Southern California is expected to spin thermometers to nearly 130 degrees this weekend in Death Valley — where even overnight lows could exceed 100.
The highest temperatures are expected in Death Valley, with highs of 128 and 129 degrees expected on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.Miguel Miller, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in San Diego, said 100-degrees-plus for overnight lows in the area are “kind of rare, but it does happen.”
“We’ve seen such cool temperatures this spring, colder than normal, so this switch might not be very appealing to people,” said Lisa Phillips, a National Weather Service meteorologist with the agency’s Oxnard office. “The ocean is our air conditioning in the summer,” Phillips said. “If we don’t have enough onshore flow, it affects overnight temperatures.”
