San Francisco, CA – Residents of the San Francisco Bay Area can expect rising temperatures starting Thursday afternoon. A warming trend is forecast to continue into Friday as high pressure from the Desert Southwest pushes westward.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) Bay Area office, temperatures across the region will see a noticeable increase, particularly inland. Areas like Livermore and Fairfield could see highs in the mid-90s, while coastal areas like Half Moon Bay will remain cooler with highs in the mid-60s. The heat is expected to peak Friday, making outdoor activities uncomfortable for many.
The NWS advises people to stay hydrated and limit outdoor activities during peak heat hours. Communities prone to heat risks should take precautions. The cooling effects along the coast will provide some relief, but most inland cities will face warmer-than-average temperatures.
