SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Temperatures throughout San Diego County will warm
slightly each day leading up to the arrival of a heat wave for Labor Day
weekend, according to the National Weather Service.
The agency issued an excessive heat watch that will be in effect from
Friday morning through Monday evening in the western valleys, the mountains and
the deserts. An excessive heat watch will also be in effect from Saturday
morning through Monday evening in coastal areas.
High pressure will strengthen over California throughout the week and
begin ushering in the sweltering conditions on Friday, forecasters said.
Monsoonal moisture is not expected to accompany the weekend heat, meaning it
will not feel as muggy as recent heat waves.
Temperatures in the deserts could reach 119 on Sunday and 118 on
Monday, while highs in the western valleys are expected to top out at 109 on
Saturday, forecasters said.
High temperatures today are forecast to reach 76 degrees near the
coast, 80 inland, 83 in the western valleys, 90 near the foothills, 94 in the
mountains and 109 in the deserts.
