The Bay Area is expected to experience a brief heat wave leading up to Labor Day, with temperatures reaching the mid-to upper 90s. National Weather Service meteorologist Dylan Flynn noted the heat will not be as extreme as previously predicted, lowering expectations from a high of 107 degrees to the 90s. The hottest temperatures will occur on Thursday, with mild winds from the Pacific providing slight warmth but minimal fire risk. This heat wave, like previous ones this summer, is not expected to last beyond a few days.
The heat is not going to be as severe as we thought it was going to be. It's not going to be extreme like it initially appeared it would be.
Temperatures are set to reach the mid-to upper 90s on Wednesday and upper 90s on Thursday, with some areas like Antioch possibly exceeding 100 degrees.
The peak will last one day, with temperatures reverting to the mid-90s on Friday and upper 80s on Saturday. This heat wave reflects previous short-term heat ups this season.
The strength of the off-shore winds won't be that high, contributing a slight temperature increase without significantly elevating fire danger.
