Temperatures will increase each day with afternoon highs on Sunday, Father's Day, between 8 to 12 degrees above normal. Temps increase this weekend Extreme heat warning for Sunday Breezy winds are hanging around There is an extreme warning for Sunday because the temperature is expected to be 108 degrees. Because it also happens to be Father's Day, some families may be planning to spend time outdoors.
