The heat continues Friday, making it the hottest day of the week, with some record temperatures likely to hit at the peak of the day’s heat.<\/p>\n
“If you like hot weather, today is your day,” \u00a0CBS LA Chief Meteorologist Paul Deanno said, likening Friday’s temperatures to July heat.<\/p>\n
Highs on Friday are expected to be 15 to 22 degrees above normal, with coastal temperatures in the 80s, valleys in the upper 80s to mid-90s, and 90s in the Inland Empire.<\/p>\n
A heat advisory was under consideration, according to the National Weather Service, but will not be issued given the cool start to the day and the short duration of peak heat.<\/p>\n
Records are expected to be shattered in Riverside and Fullerton, with Riverside’s record of 85 topped by 92 today, and Fullerton’s forecast of 93 today beating its record of 88.<\/p>\n
Other areas that will experience high temperatures today, nearing or breaking records, include: Burbank 86 in 1986, Woodland Hills 92 in 1986, Santa Maria 86 in 1932, Pasadena 86 in 2002, San Gabriel 89 in 2002, and Ojai 88 in 2025.<\/p>\n
Steady cooling will follow Saturday and into next week.\u00a0 “It will be a little cooler tomorrow and a little cooler on Sunday, but well above average,” Deanno said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Coastal areas will see fog Friday through Sunday, with dense fog possible Friday and Saturday. Max temps will fall 4 to 8 degrees across the coasts and valleys on Saturday, but will still be above normal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
