Bullet points of ‘Dangerously hot’ weather to roast US west as brutal summer continues
- A brutal heatwave is expected to hit the US west, with temperatures potentially reaching 100F (37.7C) in Los Angeles and over 110F (43.3C) in inland areas.
- The heatwave is expected to last from Wednesday to the weekend, with little relief from warm overnight low temperatures.
- Desert cities like Palm Springs are expected to see multiple days of temperatures over 110F, while Death Valley national park could reach 118F (47.7C) on Friday.
- The Bay Area and Central valley are also expected to experience unusually high temperatures, with San Francisco predicted to be at least 13 degrees above average.
- The heatwave will add to the pain of what's already been a devastating summer in the region, with Californians experiencing their hottest July on record.
- The heat has primed the west for an explosive fire season, with many areas experiencing drought and dry conditions.
- Fire officials are worried that the west will face significant fire potential into the fall, with many wildfires still burning across the region.
