Roger Gass from the NWS remarked, "[The heat wave] is the result of the high-pressure building in, and it's particularly strong for this time of year." This highlights the unusual pressure patterns causing high temperatures this fall.
He added, "We normally have stronger offshore wind events that would push the heat to the coast." This indicates a significant departure from typical seasonal weather dynamics.
Gass noted that, while this heat wave is intense, it is not unprecedented, stating, "It's not uncommon for us to have heat events this time of the year, but they're not typically to this magnitude." This indicates a historical context for the current temperatures.
