"Heat Dome to Scorch West with Triple-Digit Temperatures and Warnings"
TL;DR Summary
A significant heat wave, driven by a high-pressure ridge or "heat dome," is set to bring dangerously high temperatures to much of inland California this week, with highs expected to top 100 degrees in many areas. The National Weather Service has issued several excessive heat watches and warnings, particularly for the Antelope Valley, Apple and Lucerne valleys, and areas near California's border with Nevada. The extreme heat poses serious health risks, especially for vulnerable populations, and is expected to elevate fire conditions across the state. The heat wave is forecasted to peak midweek before gradually cooling down by the weekend.
