Triple-Digit Weather, 40 MPH Winds Coming To Agoura Hills

AGOURA HILLS, CA — A little more than a week after a cold storm dumped snow in the local mountains and heavy rain across Los Angeles, a major heatwave is bringing temperatures 15 to 20 degrees above normal, and windy weather. A National Weather Service heat advisory will go into effect Wednesday in Agoura Hills, as near triple-digit temperatures approach.

The city is expected to see highs of 89 degrees Wednesday, with winds as high as 40 mph, according to the National Weather Service. Despite the high winds, a wind warning has not yet been issued for the Santa Monica Mountain range.

Thursday will see temperatures of 98, with gusts as high as 40 mph. The winds will calm down Friday, but a high of 99 will remain.

Temperatures will cool down significantly Friday night. A high of 79 is expected Saturday, and a high of 70 is expected Sunday.

Despite the high temperatures and winds, no Red Flag Warnings or public safety power shutoffs are scheduled.

"It's a pretty significant heat wave," David Sweet, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service told the Los Angeles Times. "It's not very typical for the first week of April."

Hot temperatures could make residents vulnerable to heat illnesses. As such, residents should stay hydrated and out of the sun and should check on neighbors and relatives throughout the week.

The heatwave is not expected to set temperature records.

"We have gusty winds, high surf, and hot temperatures all on the agenda for the weather this week," the weather service tweeted.
