SACRAMENTO, Calif — Cooling centers are scheduled to open this weekend with temperatures reaching triple digits in the Greater Sacramento area.
Significant heat is on the way to California, with highs pushing above 110 in the Valley and overnight lows in the 70s and 80s.
Major heat risk is forecast across the state due to the extremely hot daytime highs paired with the lack of relief overnight. A very strong ridge of high pressure is migrating north and west and will be centered over Southern Nevada by this weekend, putting much of the west at risk for near-record heat.
The location of the high pressure will help push temperatures into dangerous territories through the weekend. Check below for a list of cooling centers in the region and tips on how to stay cool during the heat.
