Temperatures exceeded 100 degrees Fahrenheit along parts of the California coast, creating unprecedented nighttime heat conditions. Excessive heat warnings extended across California, Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon.
Meteorologist Bryan Lewis stated that such high nighttime temperatures occur only about once a year in the affected areas and highlighted the lack of cooling sea breezes.
With Burbank Airport reaching 114 degrees, the current heat wave ties it with historical highs, raising significant concerns about extended heat exposure and its effects.
The persistent heat at night was attributed to a high-pressure system preventing typical cooling winds, leading to dangerously high temperatures across the region.
