California – An excessive heat warning is in effect for San Francisco today as temperatures are set to peak at 94°F in downtown, with parts of the Bay Area reaching highs of 110°F inland. Residents should take immediate precautions to stay safe, including avoiding outdoor activities during peak hours and staying hydrated.
According to the National Weather Service, the heat warning remains in place through 11 p.m. Wednesday. Coastal temperatures are expected to climb up to 95°F, affecting cities along US-101, including Monterey and the North Bay. Inland regions such as Concord and Livermore may see triple-digit heat, which poses serious health risks for outdoor workers, children, and the elderly.
Local authorities advise residents to stay indoors during the hottest parts of the day, limit travel if possible, and keep pets cool. Those without air conditioning are encouraged to visit cooling centers or malls to avoid heat-related illnesses. San Francisco will see slight relief by Thursday, with highs dropping to the low 70s, but heat could return this weekend. Keep track of updates for any changes in advisories.
