Get ready to turn up the AC, Bay Area! A significant heat advisory has been issued for vast swaths of our beloved region, with inland areas particularly feeling the burn. The National Weather Service (NWS) has sounded the alarm, warning residents to prepare for dangerously high temperatures set to bake the region from Thursday morning through Friday night.
The advisory is in effect from 11 a.m.
Thursday to 11 p.m. Friday, blanketing the Inland East Bay, North Bay valleys, and key parts of the South Bay, including the Santa Clara Valley. Anticipate the mercury soaring into the mid-90s, with some isolated spots even hitting triple-digit temperatures. Yes, you heard that right – we're talking about potential 100-degree days in our usually temperate Bay Area!
While coastal areas might catch a slight break, the inland regions are squarely in the hot zone.
This isn't just about uncomfortable warmth; these temperatures pose a real risk for heat-related illnesses. Vulnerable populations, including the elderly, young children, and those working outdoors, are especially susceptible. Even healthy individuals need to take precautions.
So, what can you do to beat the heat and stay safe? The NWS urges everyone to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, even if you don't feel thirsty.
Avoid strenuous outdoor activities during the peak heat hours, typically from late morning through early evening. If you must be outside, take frequent breaks in the shade or in air-conditioned spaces.
Remember to check on your neighbors, especially those who might be elderly or isolated, to ensure they are coping well.
Never, under any circumstances, leave children or pets unattended in vehicles, as interior temperatures can skyrocket to life-threatening levels in minutes. Seek out cooling centers if your home isn't equipped with air conditioning, and wear light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.
Let's make sure we all navigate this heatwave safely and look out for one another.
Stay cool, Bay Area!
