The Ontario Weather Service is going to call a heatwave event. Records may be smashed in spots. Big Bear Lake's 94-95 degree record may be smashed by a 100 degree reading on July 4, 2007! High pressure building in will be centered over Northwest Arizona. This will put us in a huge ridge folks. These heights will allow 100 degree readings in the higher mountain elevations!
Palm Springs may go over 120 degrees, and well you had it over at Havasu and Blythe, with over 125 possible. Inland Empire areas could hit 110. The best spots to go will be the beach. Onshore flow will allow for cooling there, and it should stay in the 80's. Still hot, however areas a few miles inland from the beach could hit over 100 if the wind flow is just right.
Will reflect on this as the heatwave approaches.
Get out to the beach during this time! This is your relief window.
Please prepare yourselves if you are in the areas where the heat will occur.
As for Tehachapi Town. You guys will very well be into the 90's and close to 100 in spots as well. Very dangerous situation, and do not be caught off guard.
If you are traveling to the Central Valley on I-5 do not think you will escape the heat. The Central Valley will bake over 110+ Degrees as well.
This is your first forecast for these temperatures. More will follow in a couple days for the final thoughts. Please return to this section for your update.
