Hanford, California – A string of sunny, 90-degree days is locking into Hanford this week, with daytime highs peaking near 90°F by Thursday and continuing into the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Hanford, clear skies and west-northwest winds of around 5 to 10 mph will dominate the Central Valley through at least Sunday. Highs will range from 87°F to 90°F daily, with overnight lows hovering around 61°F to 64°F, offering only mild relief from the heat.
The warm, dry pattern could increase fire risk across dry brush areas in Kings and Fresno counties, especially by Thursday afternoon. Outdoor workers and residents without air conditioning are advised to stay hydrated and limit outdoor activity during peak afternoon hours.
There are no rain chances in the forecast, and this extended stretch of high pressure mirrors similar July heat events in the region’s recent history. No air quality alerts have been issued yet, but ozone levels could climb as temperatures rise.
This stable, hot pattern is expected to hold through early next week. More heat advisories could be issued if temperatures climb further.
