'There is a high chance of above normal temperatures on Friday and Saturday for our inland cities but that is still far out,' Ong said.
The warmest temperatures are likely to hit the region Friday, with heat in the mid-to-upper 90s in areas like Livermore, Concord and Antioch. Other Bay Area cities could see temperatures in the upper 70s and low 80s, while coastal areas are forecast to stay in the 60s.

The National Weather Service warns that the rising temperatures bring a moderate heat risk to the region.
'A warming trend is expected through the week with [a] moderate heat risk forecast in the interior towards the end of the week,' the NWS said. 'Make sure to stay hydrated, limit time in the sun, and never leave anyone in [an] unattended vehicle.'
Summer begins on June 20.

Extreme temperatures this weekend, followed up by showers
The Grand Valley will be exceptionally hot today! Sunny skies will dominate the region today as temperatures exceed 90 degrees. Some gusty outflow winds of up to 20 miles per hour can be expected all day as well. Tonight, expect conditions to remain relatively clear with overnight lows reaching the low sixties. This week is ending with a lot of above average conditions, but tomorrow is planned to be even hotter than today, so prepare for a warm weekend!Isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms are expected for the next few days, with decreasing day-to-day coverage. Temperatures remaining warm, peaking this weekend with highs about 10 degrees above normal for June 1. This pattern is expected to turn wetter Sunday night through Tuesday, with widespread precipitation favored. The National Weather Service still has uncertainty in amounts and location of heaviest Great Basin near Nevada has high pressure sitting over the area and ridging extending into north Canada. This ridge will gradually shift east towards the western slope by Sunday. Strong heating during the day will trap a lot of moisture higher in the region, and when it is finally able to cool down a bit in the later hours it is expected to dump all of that moisture in the form of showers. Coverage of these scattered storms today will become more isolated Saturday and Sunday. The primary threats from this convection will be lightning and strong outflow winds gusting 40 to 50 miles per hour. Temperatures today will run five to eight degrees above normal for the end of May, warming to eight to 10 degrees above normal tomorrow and peaking 10 to 12 degrees above normal showers and possibly thunderstorms for Sunday night seem more and more likely, but the main storm will occur Monday. A big pattern change is set to arrive on Monday as remnant moisture from tropical storm Alvin arrives in tandem with forcing from a low pressure system. Widespread showers and storms are very expect a very hot one today, Western Slope! Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is here. What to know about forecasts, emergency alerts
The 2025 hurricane season, which runs June 1-Nov. 30, is predicted to have above-normal activity — with 17 named storms, including nine hurricanes, four of which could be major. Colorado State University's early predictions show a 65% probability of a hurricane making landfall in Florida and a 35% chance of it being a major hurricane, over a Category 3. CSU further broke down the probabilities and Florida's East Coast, including the Florida Peninsula, has a 26% probability, which is 5% higher than the average. Last year, there were 18 named storms during the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, according to NOAA's National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service. Five were major hurricanes with winds over 111 mph; 11 were hurricanes with winds of 74 mph or greater; and Florida got hit with three hurricanes: Debby, Helene and Milton. Leading up to Hurricane Milton's landfall on Florida's Gulf Coast, at least 14 tornadoes spawned throughout the Treasure Coast, resulting in six people dying at Spanish Lakes Country Club Village in St. Lucie County. Leading up to this hurricane season, over 880 workers were cut from NOAA in February, which includes the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, USA Today reported. Another 1,000 employees were later included in President Trump's plan to cut costs in fiscal year 2026. Whether you're a lifelong or longtime Floridian or recently moved to the Sunshine State, here's what you need to know about preparing for hurricane season. The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to Nov. 30. The season peaks around mid-August and late October because the waters in the equatorial Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico get warm enough to help support tropical wave development. (President Donald Trump signed an executive order calling the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.) Here are the CSU predictions for 2025 (compared to an average season): Named storms: 17 (14 on average) Named storm days: 85 (69 on average) Hurricanes: 9 (7 on average) Hurricane days: 35 (27 on average) Major hurricanes: 4 (3 on average) Major hurricane days: 9 (7 on average) Accumulated Cyclone Energy index (ACE measures overall activity): 155 (123 on average) ACE in the western half of the Atlantic basin: 93 (73 on average) Net tropical cyclone activity (NTC): 165 (135 on average) The National Hurricane Center this year will institute these changes to its prediction methods: May issue earlier advisories up to 72 hours — instead of 48 hours — before a system with storm surge and/or tropical storm-force winds Will narrow the cone of uncertainty by 3-6% Will use new symbols on weather maps representing the cone of uncertainty. An experimental cone of uncertainty launched in 2024 displayed watches and warnings for inland counties for the first time, as well as for coastal counties. Before that, the National Weather Service issued hurricane and tropical storm watches and warnings for inland counties, but the National Hurricane Center's maps didn't show them, only those for coastal counties. Based on feedback, the National Hurricane Center decided to add a symbol this year — diagonal pink and blue lines — for counties where both a hurricane watch and a tropical storm warning are in effect. Since 1953, the National Hurricane Center has released a list of names in alphabetical order for Atlantic tropical storms before each season begins, which it recycles every six years. But it retires names of storms that are excessively deadly or costly, if it would be insensitive or inappropriate to use them again. These are the 2025 Atlantic tropical cyclone names: Andrea Barry Chantal Dexter Erin Fernand Gabrielle Humberto Imelda Jerry Karen Lorenzo Melissa Nestor Olga Pablo Rebekah Sebastien Tanya Van Wendy Knowing if you live in an evacuation zone and where your evacuation routes are is vital if you need to leave quickly. Each county has designated evacuation zones, typically on barrier islands and in low-lying, flood-prone areas, especially for mobile homes and other unsafe structures. If you're unsure if you live in one, each county has an interactive map on its website showing evacuation zones and the best routes to take, whether an evacuation is ordered or if you're just being precautionary to relocate somewhere safer. Just type in your address to see if you fall within an evacuation zone in Indian River, Martin or St. Lucie. Hurricane shelters are opened if a storm threat is imminent, but they should be considered a refuge of last resort. The Treasure Coast has 39 shelters, which include four animal-friendly one and three for special needs. The shelters are designed to house residents of the barrier islands, low-lying or flood-prone areas, evacuation zones, mobile or manufactured homes, or those without shelter. Pre-registration for special needs shelters is available online on each county's website. The special-needs shelter is at Anderson Middle School, 7000 S.E. Atlantic Ridge Drive in Stuart. The pet-friendly shelter is at Willoughby Learning Center, 5150 S.E. Willoughby Blvd in Stuart. There are eight others: Port Salerno Elementary School at 3260 S.E. Lionel Terrace Warfield Elementary School at 15260 S.W. 150th St., Indiantown Jensen Beach Elementary School at 2525 N.E. Savannah Road Palm City Elementary School at 1951 S.W. 34th St. J.D.

They are categorized by the Enhanced Fujita Scale based on their winds: EF0: 65-85 mph EF1: 86-110 mph EF2: 111-135 mph EF3: 136-165 mph EF4: 166-200 mph EF5: Over 200 mph The Treasure Coast was hit with at least 14 tornadoes before Hurricane Milton made landfall, which resulted in six deaths in the Spanish Lakes Country Club Village mobile home community northwest of Fort Pierce. The most destructive tornado was an EF3 with winds from 136-165 mph that touched down in St. Lucie and Indian River counties. People living in manufactured homes and low-lying, flood-prone areas should have a storm emergency plan and disaster kits ready to go if tornado, flood or hurricane threats hit the area, said St. Lucie County Public Safety Director Ron Guerrero. Here's what the different tornado alerts mean and tornado safety tips to follow, in the event of one: Tornado watch: Possibility of tornadoes in or near the watch area. Tornado warning: A sighting or weather radar indicating a tornado. Try to move to an interior room on the lowest level in a sturdy building and stay away from windows. Tornado emergency: Issued when a violent tornado has touched down in the watch area. Here are some safety dos and don'ts if you find yourself caught in a tornado, according to NOAA: Seek shelter immediately, especially if in a mobile home, vehicle or outdoors. Move to the closest substantial shelter and protect yourself from flying debris. If you're driving, it is recommended to find shelter in a ditch or remain in your vehicle and cover your head. If in a mobile home, get to a sturdy shelter as soon as possible. If not, take shelter in a nearby ditch, low spot or underground culvert. Make sure to lie flat covering your head with your hands. Stay as low as possible by moving into an interior room on the lowest level of a sturdy building, making sure to stay away from windows, doors and outdoor walls. Interior rooms can be bathrooms, closets or halls with no windows. Use your hands, pillows, heavy coats, blankets, quilts, or helmets to shield your head from flying debris. Leading up to a storm, make sure to be prepared with an emergency kit with these items, according to NOAA: Backpack or storage tub to hold your supplies Bottled water, one gallon per person is recommended Non-perishable food and a can opener for canned foods Flashlight with extra batteries First aid supplies Bandages Ointment Disinfectant wipes Any daily or prescription medication taken Tissues Toilet paper and bags with ties for personal sanitation Paper and pen or pencil (to take notes, play games, etc.) Sleeping bag or warm blanket Wrench or pliers to turn off utilities Personal hygiene items Whistle to signal for help Important documents (identification, insurance information, banking information, wills, etc.) Emergency reference materials such as a first aid book Battery-powered radio and a NOAA weather radio Formula and diapers for infants Extra pet food A dust mask or cotton T-shirt to help filter the air Plastic sheeting and duct tape to shelter-in-place Cups and utensils A change of clothes for each person in your home Rain gear Cash Paper towels Fire Extinguisher Cards or games Do not stay outside; get to shelter as quickly as possible Avoid being by windows, doors and outside walls Do not wait until you see or hear the tornado Do not open windows or doors Do not take shelter under a highway overpass if you're caught in a tornado while in your car You can sign up for emergency alerts on your phone at Check with your service provider to find out if your cell phone or mobile device is compatible with receiving wireless emergency alerts. However, not all wireless service providers offer wireless emergency alerts, and some participating service providers may not offer it on all mobile devices, according to the Federal Communications Commission. NWS recap: 11 tornadoes confirmed, 3 more suspected on the Treasure Coast Exclusive look: Inside Spanish Lakes after Hurricane Milton killed six people If you do not receive emergency alerts, check with your service provider to see if your mobile device is compatible. If it is, and you still don't receive messages, check out your user manual, or if you have an iPhone, follow these steps: Go to settings and click on the notifications tab. Scroll to the bottom of the screen. Under government alerts, turn the type of alert on or off. Each county has its own alert system. You can sign up for AlertMartin, and Alert Indian River on the Indian River, Martin and St. Lucie county websites.

Southern California inland deserts brace for triple digit weather, dangerous heat conditions
Inland desert communities in Southern California are expecting to receive triple-digit weather on Friday, which will increase dangerous heat conditions. KCAL News issued a Next Weather Alert to warn people about the upcoming weather event that could impact their daily routines. Meteorologist Amber Lee said the temperatures will be the hottest the region has seen in 2025 so far. The alert has been issued for areas like the Antelope Valley and the inland desert. The National Weather Service extended its heat advisory to include the Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita Valley and Central Ventura County valleys. The advisory will go into effect at 11 a.m. and will remain until 8 p.m. Weather officials predict temperatures near the coast will be near the 70s, the inland coastal plains will be around the 80s and the valleys and lower mountains will be around 90s to 102 degrees. The NWS recommends that people in affected areas take precautions and limit outdoor activities, properly hydrate and remain in air-conditioned rooms. The heat will not last long and cooler conditions will begin Saturday for the rest of the weekend. A system of tropical moisture will bring humid and muggy air with a chance of showers or thunderstorms in the mountains and deserts.
