You can see outside of the Golden Gate Bridge. Theres no fog. No marine influence it is just hot inland air making its way all the way up to the coast. Many areas like berkeley are kicking off the morning at an uncomfortable low 80s, currently San Francisco at 75 well conquered at 76, north bay, some of our coolest temperatures in the 60s you are lucky to be in nevado right now are cool spot. At 63 degrees can surrounding areas do not have that cool feel that you so desire after a hot day. 80s 90s triple digits back to those numbers all across the bay area today may not be quite as hot as yesterday but we will still be dangerously hot for areas like livermore antioch at one 10 each well delay, ho conquered san jose fremont Mountain View napa nevado in santa rosa all easily triple digits again so it should come as no surprise that virtually the entire region except for the coastline is lit up in excessive heat warnings we will see heat warnings from areas like menlo park all the way up to south San Francisco. Heat advisories right along the immediate coastline which will obviously beer cooler areas, but still solid 80s, triple digits for parts of the south bay east bay, and areas like oakland, maybe in the 90s but all you have to do is head up into the hills and you start to see those triple digits and raga and are in death. North bay temperatures not just at a 100 degrees but at a 110 in areas like the vacaville and fairfield coastal areas as i mentioned a little cooler but not really from the heat necessarily just not as hot for these areas. Air quality continues to be an issue with very poor conditions for much of the bay. So thats just the next reason to limit outdoor exposure as much as possible today obviously the heat is already going to keep you inside more than anything else. But with that por erica to a cool spot. Just take it as easy as possible. I know this is not the ideal labor day that you had planned. But a good excuse that leads to not plan too much and just take it easy get yourself some rest hot again this afternoon with triple digits. Later today by the time we work towards 03 00pm for inland spots. Well beside areas back solidly into the mid 90s back to you try not to drive in your 90s because the roadways are so clear. That you could get a speeding ticket and i have proof look at that its almost barren at the bay bridge toll plaza look at that one car heading towards the toll plaza right now no problems in the east bay across the span down onto the streets of San Francisco, a little bit thicker on the san mateo bridge but obviously nothing like a normal day this being labor day, no problems, especially if youre going from the peninsula to the east bay and very few cars on the Golden Gate Bridge as well no fog very hot. Just take it easy anywhere you go because chp officers. They are patrolling because this being a threeday weekend they are watching drinking and driving. All right time now is 5 03 and happening today we have another power alert thats going to go into effect this afternoon because of the extreme heat that will was just talking about thats right james, the states power regulators want people to conserve energy even though we will see triple digits again kron 4 Sarah Stinson live in Contra Costa County with the latest good morning sara.

And we are. And you have the circles on the ground, so i feel like everythings pretty even like a like that the large happy i everybody have their masks you know like morning who did everything there. The painted social distancing circles and the newly installed hearts continued to be a hit and for those that didnt have masks park rangers were handing them out even in the time of covid19 some parkgoers say outside is better than inside ive been here pretty often and i havent gotten it yet so. Hoping for the reporting at dolores park dan thorn kron 4 news. Something tells me john well see the exact same thing today dolores park because it is going to be another hot one yeah, yeah, and thats just another reason to stress social distancing again because yes it is going to be another toasty one and with those hot temperatures. You need to find a cool place to go but you want to do so responsibly i know its a lot to think about. But if all else fails just by that ice cream and even the calls from your house looking outside of berkeley here we do have clear skies unfortunately, no marine impacts or not going have any cloud cover or any sort of fog pushing and its just going to be a hot offshore flow. That results in those hot temperatures returning yet again today in fact you dont even have to wait very long were already starting off pretty warm for a lot of the bay berkeley are 81 right now San Franciscos at 74. Berkeley just now dropping down to 80 degrees Still Holding on to 80 though during the overnight hours.

Not the most fun of a forecast to be talking about but i promise im going to finish this one out with some good news. So just hold on for High Pressure is built up across the west coast thats whats resulting in this very strong offshore flow and then very hot temperatures we have dangerously hot so keep an eye on vulnerable family members and friends, 70s and 80s for San Francisco today a little bit cooler but really not much of a difference as for daytime highs and burlingame south San Francisco brisbane millbrae back to the 90s youll be triple digits back for Mountain View inn woodside and also down into the south bay where san jose youll be at one o to los gatos that one of 4 today, triple digits for freeman threw livermore not just a 100 degrees but a 110 in livermore you can add danville that list at one 10 san ramon at one 09 oakland 94 today, not as hot as yesterday 94 still very hot.
