The heat is on across the San Francisco Bay Area.
With a high pressure system hunkered down over the West Coast, temperatures are expected to be even warmer on Tuesday than they were on Monday. Tuesday will be the hottest day out of the three days we expect the warmer temperatures, said National Weather Service Gerry Diaz, noting that the warm spell started Monday and will run into Wednesday. Tuesday will be the day where we have the highest likelihood of a few places hitting 90 degrees, including locations above 1,500 feet in the North Bay, parts of the East Bay such as Livermore and Concord, and spots along the 101 corridor in the South Bay such as Gilroy.
