Amber Lee’s latest weather forecast has issued an urgent alert for Southern California as a significant heat wave is set to grip the region over the next several days. With temperatures soaring into the upper 90s in the Inland Empire and the 80s along the coast, residents are urged to prepare for a sweltering weekend ahead.

Pasadena, Glendora, and Yorba Linda are among the areas bracing for intense heat, while Mission Viejo is expected to reach the upper 80s. The Inland Empire will experience particularly extreme conditions, with San Bernardino and Lake Elsinore likely to hit triple digits by Sunday. This surge in temperature is fueled by a high-pressure system moving back into the region, promising to keep the heat cranked up throughout Labor Day weekend.

For those planning outdoor activities, including grilling, the forecast offers some relief—yes, you can fire up the grill! However, caution is advised as the heat intensifies. With highs in the 90s expected to persist until mid-next week, residents are advised to stay hydrated and protect themselves from the sun.

As the weather heats up, isolated thunderstorms and showers could make a surprise appearance in the Inland Empire on Tuesday and Wednesday, adding an unpredictable twist to the forecast. This dynamic weather pattern underscores the importance of staying informed as conditions evolve.

Stay tuned for further updates as Amber Lee continues to monitor this developing heat wave. Prepare now to beat the heat and stay safe!
