LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Most of Northern California – including Lake County – remains under a heat advisory that the National Weather Service has issued.
The advisory is in effect through 10 p.m. Friday in response to what forecasters said are “dangerously hot conditions.”
Temperatures through Friday are expected to top the 100-degree mark during the day, dipping into the low 60s at night. Winds of up to 9 miles per hour are forecast during that same timeframe.
Over the weekend, the National Weather Service is forecasting temperatures that will trend downward due to a substantial trough – an elongated area of relatively low pressure – expected to drop in over the region.
The extended forecast said that trough will end the recent run of hot weather over interior northwest California, causing temperatures to return to closer-to-normal seasonal temperatures.
On Saturday, Lake County’s temperatures are anticipated to be sunny and clear, topping out in the mid-90s, before dropping into the 80s through Tuesday, rising again into the 90s on Wednesday.
Nighttime temperatures will be in the 50s during that period, the forecast said.
