Helix Park on Tuesday in La Mesa.The most intense heat wave so far this year will get underway Wednesday in San Diego County, producing “dangerously hot conditions” that could affect people’s health and significantly increase the risk of wildfires, the National Weather Service said.
A new state law that took affect this year says that high schools east of Interstate 15 cannot begin any outdoor, after-school activity if weather conditions do not meet certain criteria, including having an air temperature that is below 90 degrees. The temperature can be slightly higher if other factors —such as the wind and humidity — are more favorable.
The temperatures will be only slightly better along the Interstate 805 corridor, reaching the upper 80s on Wednesday, low 90s on Thursday and Friday, and upper 80s on Saturday.
