Sacramento, California – Sunny skies are bringing rising dangers in Sacramento as temperatures begin a climb into the mid-90s through early next week, with Saturday and Tuesday expected to hit 95°F.
According to the National Weather Service, Sacramento will remain dry and clear, with overnight lows barely dipping below 60°F. Friday will see a high near 92°F, with temps gradually intensifying through midweek. Light south-southwest winds offer little relief as the heat builds.
