The heat is turning on across the San Francisco Bay Area.
in the Bay Area on Tuesday is expected to move into the region on Wednesday and Thursday, bringing the warmest weather of the year so far. High pressure is associated with warm weather, and the Bay Area will be getting exactly that through the weekend.
Fog pushed into coastal areas of the Bay Area on Wednesday morning and was still clinging to the beaches as of 8 a.m. “It will be mixing out in the next couple hours or so,” said Sean Miller, a forecaster with the National Weather Service. A light onshore breeze is expected to keep coastal areas cooler and in the mid-60s to lower 70s on Wednesday afternoon, but away from the coast, afternoon highs are forecast to reach the 70s to upper 80s. While the weather service isn’t expecting any same-day records to be broken today, afternoon temperatures will be noticeably warmer than they were on Tuesday and “5 to 15 degrees above normal for late April,” the agency said.
Thursday, when the ridge is slated to be centered over the Bay Area, will likely bring the hottest weather of the week. “For tomorrow, we’ll see some 70s in the city and then mostly mid- to upper 80s in those inland areas,” Miller said, “but we’ll probably see a few places get close to 90.”
