It's Sizzling in Southern California

This week, extremely high temperatures have, and are expected to, be imminent in the area this week. Temperatures in the coastal and mountain areas are expected to be between 85 and 112 degrees Fahrenheit, while in the Deserts of Southern California, temperatures will be between 110 and a blistering 125 degrees (Death Valley). Record-breaking temperatures were recorded.

Luckily, it appears that today was the peak of the heat wave, and that there will be a slow cooling trend throughout the rest of the week.

The monsoonal moisture that came from the south made its way into Southern California, creating high humidity and isolated thunderstorms in the deserts and mountain areas.
