Warmer weather this weekend comes with an excessive heat warning for San Diego’s deserts on Sunday and Monday, with temperatures well above 100 degrees expected.
Temperatures along the coast will be in the mid-70s while the inland valleys will be in the mid-80s Sunday.
“We’re going to warm up significantly Sunday to Monday,” NBC 7 weathercaster Liberty Zabala said Saturday morning. “It’s going to be ticking up a bit at the coast because we’re going to be still protected by the marine layer.”
She said temperatures would go back down in the middle of next week and heat up again next weekend.
“The deserts, you really need to pay attention, because you’re starting off with that triple-digit heat, jumping significantly to dangerous heat,” Zabala said.
Highs in the deserts Sunday and Monday are expected to be 107 and 109.
“Sunblock, water and shades will be your best friends, especially if you go head out to the fair,” Zabala added.
