NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE REPORT
Thursday, August 7th, 2025
SYNOPSIS: Temperatures near seasonal averages expected through
Today. Risk for heat- related impacts increase Friday through
Monday in the interior.
TODAY:
Inland: Sunny, with a high near 91. North wind 10 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.
Along the Coast: Cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 66. North northwest wind 5 to 13 mph, with gusts as high as 18 mph.
TONIGHT:
Inland: Mostly clear, with a low around 56. North wind 8 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.
Along the Coast: Patchy fog after 11pm. Otherwise, partly cloudy, with a low around 54. North northwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming light and variable in the evening.
Extended Forecast: A dry cold front is moving in, bringing some high clouds but generally dry conditions, with a thin layer of cool, moist air near the coast stretching inland. Temperatures today will be close to average, with hot weather inland (upper 80s to mid 90s) and mild temperatures near the coast (mid to upper 60s). Starting Friday, a warm air mass will settle in, sending temperatures well above normal—especially in valley areas, where many spots could hit over 100°F through Monday, prompting likely heat advisories for areas like Trinity County. While the heat will persist for several days inland, cooler marine air is expected to return and bring some relief by the middle of next week.
