The Southwest region is currently experiencing a variety of weather conditions. Rain is sweeping along the California coastline, benefiting areas like San Francisco and Los Angeles with relief from dry conditions. Fresno and Bakersfield are under clear skies, while Cedar City and Ely might see some light snow mixed with rain. Las Vegas and Phoenix remain dry, with clear skies prevailing across the deserts.
Expect a mild start to the morning with partly cloudy skies and temperatures around 60 degrees at 8 a.m. By 10 a.m., temperatures will rise to 62 degrees with some sunshine peeking through, and conditions remaining calm. As we approach midday, enjoy mostly sunny skies with temperatures climbing to 68 degrees.
Tomorrow in Phoenix, expect a sizzling high of 109 degrees, significantly above average for this time of year. Las Vegas will reach a scorching 107 degrees, reinforcing the heat wave sweeping the region. In Los Angeles, temperatures will be more comfortable at 84 degrees, while San Diego sees a high of 80. Farther inland, Fresno and Bakersfield are set to hit 103 degrees, aligning with seasonal norms. San Francisco will enjoy a mild day with a high of 70 degrees, standing in stark contrast to the extreme heat in the desert areas.
A high-pressure system dominates over the Southwest tomorrow, bringing clear skies and warm temperatures. Expect the desert regions to remain hot with highs pushing into the low 100s, while coastal areas stay cooler in the upper 70s to low 80s. Over the Sierra Nevada, watch for gusty winds as a trough passes, which could elevate fire risks. No precipitation is expected, keeping conditions dry throughout the region.
With an extreme UV index of 10 on both Friday and Saturday in Los Angeles, sun exposure risks are high. Expect a burn time of just 12 minutes, so it’s crucial to apply high SPF sunscreen and wear protective clothing if you’re outdoors.
