Autumn hot spell
Happy Saturday Everyone! Hot and hazy today with a SPARE THE AIR in place and highs 10–20° above average. A HEAT ADVISORY is in effect until Monday 10 PM for all areas away from the coast where a compressed marine layer will produce patchy dense fog and comfortable temps. Higher elevations will remain hot and dry, with elevated fire-weather concerns continuing through Thursday. Friday, the ridge is finally expected to weaken, bringing the potential for cooler conditions.

The heat has staying power
Low stratus clouds near San Francisco after midnight, becoming most dense around the Monterey Bay and Central Coast line. Localized dense, blinding fog is possible on coastal routes before sunrise. Inland valleys and coast will cool into the comfortable 50s to low 60s. Heat Advisory: Officially into effect at 11:00 AM Saturday through Monday night for the majority of the Bay Area. Widespread Moderate Heat Risk with distinct pockets of Major Heat Risk will dominate the inland areas. Microclimate Highs: Coast: 68°F to 75°F. Morning beach stratus will be short-lived. Bayshore Shoreline: 80°F to 92°F. Inland Valleys: 95°F to 103°F. Onshore sea breezes will be light, with localized afternoon gusts reaching just 20 to 25 mph through the most wind-prone gaps and the northern Salinas Valley. These light winds are a primary driver for the active SPARE THE AIR pollution trapping through Sunday.
