Hanford, California – Temperatures in the Central Valley will climb steadily through Friday, July 25, with Hanford expected to hit 90°F and stay there. With clear skies and light winds, this prolonged stretch of heat could impact outdoor workers, vulnerable residents, and anyone traveling midday along Hwy 198 and Hwy 43.
According to the National Weather Service in Hanford, Friday will see sunny skies and highs near 88°F, followed by 90°F on Saturday and a sweltering 92°F by Sunday. Northwest winds will remain light at around 5 mph, offering little relief from the building heat. Overnight lows will only dip into the mid-60s, keeping conditions warm around the clock.
By Monday, July 28, the high will remain near 92°F, making it critical to hydrate, limit outdoor activity between 1–5 p.m., and check on neighbors or pets. Cooling centers in Kings County may open if thresholds are met, though no official heat advisory has been posted as of early Thursday.
Weekend plans? Expect continued sun and rising temperatures — perfect for pool days, but risky for long road trips without air conditioning. Drivers should ensure their vehicles are summer-ready, especially on longer rural stretches between Lemoore and Visalia.
