Heat advisories extended for Bay Area inland locations as hot weather to last into weekend
Large portions of the Bay Area and the Central Coast were under a heat advisory Thursday morning, which has been extended for what could be the hottest days of the year. The National Weather Service said a heat advisory was in effect at 10 a.m. for inland portions of the East Bay and South Bay, as well as the North Bay interior mountains. The advisory was extended through Saturday after forecasters originally said the heat wave would peak on Friday. In its daily forecast discussion, the Weather Service said Thursday would be the hottest day for coastal and bayshore areas with above-normal temperatures in the 70s and 80s, respectively. However, away from the coast, temperatures will be in the 90s to the lower 100s on Thursday, with some records for the day possible falling. KPIX First Alert Weather: Current conditions, alerts, maps for your area While coastal areas should begin to see some relief late Thursday afternoon as onshore wind conditions start to prevail, interior locations will remain in the grip of a heat dome emanating from the Four Corners area of the Southwest U.S. through Saturday with Friday being the hottest day of this round of heat, the Weather Service said. Further south in the Central Coast area, interior portions of Monterey and San Benito Counties are also under the heat advisory, while areas of the San Joaquin Valley will be under an extreme heat warning beginning at 11 a.m. Friday through 8 a.m. Sunday. The Weather Service said dangerously hot conditions are expected in parts of the Central Valley with temperatures reaching 105, along with warm overnight lows in the mid-70s to lower 80s. In addition to the high temperatures, forecast models show clouds are moving in from the south as monsoonal moisture reaches the Bay Area and Central Coast, the Weather Service said. While the models show enough moisture and unstable air to support storms, forecasters say there's no strong trigger to set them off, meaning the chance of thunderstorms is low but not zero. If any storms do form, they're more likely to bring lightning than rain, raising the risk of dry thunderstorms, with the best window for possible storm activity being Friday and Saturday, especially over the Central Coast, forecasters said.

The Best Emergency Weather Radios For Hurricane Season
During severe weather or rolling power blackouts, you may not be able to check for safety updates on your phone, TV or computer. If the internet is down, your phone battery's dead or you have to leave your house for shelter, having a special battery- or hand-powered weather radio that transmits NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) can keep you up to date without needing Wi-Fi or an outlet. From the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration and the National Weather Service, the NWR is a nationwide network of radio stations that broadcast continuous weather warnings, watches and forecasts and general hazard information like earthquakes and volcano activity as well as non-weather related issues like hazardous chemical spills or child abduction announcements. For 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, it broadcasts across seven different VHF frequencies ranging from 162.400 MHz to 162.550 MHz, so it demands a specific type of radio. According to NWR, the network has more than 850 transmitters that cover all 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the U.S. Pacific Territories. Each transmitter covers a 40-mile radius, giving you local coverage and updates. Programming is generally repeated throughout the day, every few minutes, going over the local forecast as well as general climate date and info on regional conditions and water. In emergencies, this programming is interrupted with updates such as tornado warnings. Some weather radios have Specific Area Message Encoding, known as SAME, which you'll want to get if you're looking for hyper-local coverage. This allows you to program your receiver for your specific county so you will be alerted for weather or emergencies related to your area. Otherwise, your radio will pick up and alert you for any updates within that 40-mile radius. To help you pick the best weather radio for you, here are some of the NOAA and National Weather Service's top picks, as well as some highly-rated newer models.

Hurricane Erin flooding, rip current threat to peak Thursday night
NEW YORK — The coastal flooding threat from Hurricane Erin will peak with Thursday night's high tide, and dangers from the storm will continue into Friday, meteorologists said. Gov. Kathy Hochul ordered the closure of all New York state beaches through Thursday night, but the National Weather Service warned of rip currents throughout the region until 8 p.m. Friday. 'The threat for beach flooding, beach erosion and escarpment and areas of dune erosion will increase with successive high tides through tonight,' NWS forecasters warned Thursday. 'This high surf will be combined with elevated water levels as we approach a new moon.' Waves are expected to peak at 12-16 feet high on Long Island on Thursday night, with high tide times varying up and down the island. Coastal communities in southern Queens and Brooklyn could experience flooding. Hurricane Erin is expected to move further out to sea on Friday, and the storm is not predicted to make landfall. The storm is still making impacts along the East Coast because of its massive size, measuring nearly 600 miles in diameter,which is twice as big as an average hurricane. Even as Erin has made its way north, the storm has continued kicking up rip currents up and down the coast. The National Weather Service warned of dangerous ocean conditions from Maine to South Florida on Thursday. Rip currents are expected to remain a threat to the tri-state area through Friday, even if beaches finally reopen. By Saturday, conditions are expected to be back to normal.
