Sacramento, CA – Sacramento residents will see another sweltering stretch Tuesday, with temperatures climbing to 95°F under cloudless skies. The heat will be most intense between late morning and early evening, posing risks for outdoor workers, athletes, and anyone planning midday activities.
According to the National Weather Service, light south-southwest winds will offer little relief, holding at 6 to 9 mph. Cooling begins after sunset, with temperatures dipping to around 60°F Tuesday night. While Wednesday will still be warm at 91°F, the trend shifts toward milder highs in the upper 80s by the weekend.
The city’s cooling centers are expected to be open, and residents are urged to stay hydrated, wear light clothing, and avoid strenuous outdoor work during peak heat hours. Roads like Interstate 5 and Highway 99 may see increased breakdowns from overheated engines, so motorists should check coolant levels before travel.
This heat burst is brief, with no excessive heat warnings issued for later in the week. Still, officials recommend monitoring for updates, especially for vulnerable populations.
