... Hot and dry weather over the interior of northern California...

High pressure building over northern California from the eastern
Pacific will cause a relatively short heat wave over the area.
Very hot daytime temperatures are expected today through Friday
with maximum temperatures in the Central Valley surpassing the
century mark. Maximum temperatures in the mountains will be mostly
in the 80s and 90s with some areas above the century mark. The
hottest day is expected to occur on Thursday when high
temperatures are forecast to top out in the 105 to 112 degree
range in the Interior Valley... and 88 to 103 degrees in the
populated mountain areas and may result in record or near record
high temperatures. Although temperatures will be very
hot... humidity levels will be relatively low and heat indices will
remain lower than the ambient air temperatures. Therefore... no
heat watches or advisories are expected at this time.

Fortunately... the dry airmass over the area will allow overnight
temperatures to lower to relatively comfortable levels. Minimum
temperatures in the 60s to lower 70s are expected across much of
the region while many of the higher mountain valleys will cool
into the upper 40s and 50s.

Relief from the heat is expected over the weekend as high pressure
begins to weaken. Residents of northern California should monitor
the latest weather information concerning the hot weather.

Record high temperatures for Thursday August 28th...
