Lancaster and Palmdale set heat records on Saturday. But triple-digit heat is expected to continue into next weekend.
Daytime highs were expected to remain in that range or possibly increase a couple degrees Sunday and peak through Wednesday, with many areas exceeding 100 degrees in the Santa Clarita, Antelope and San Fernando valleys.
"For the coastal valleys such as San Fernando, San Gabriel, and Santa Clarita, and the Santa Monica mountains all advisories and warnings have been canceled. Please continue to use caution when outdoors and avoid exercise during the hottest parts of the day."An excessive heat warning was in effect through 8 p.m. Sunday in the Santa Clarita and Antelope valleys, along with the western San Fernando Valley, San Gabriel Mountains and the 5 and 14 Freeway corridors.
The hot, dry weather was also creating elevated fire danger in the interior valleys, mountains and deserts that was also expected to last all week. As has been the case in recent days, the coast will be the place to be, even though temperatures there will still be slightly above normal.
