Millbrae To Offer Relief As Bay Area Heads Into 'Prolonged Period Of Very Warm Temperatures'

SAN MATEO COUNTY, CA -- Like the weather outside? Well, enjoy it, because it's about to warm up again, according to the National Weather Service. Forecasters are calling for a "prolonged period of very warm temperatures" in the region -- however Peninsula residents may be spared from the heat wave.

"Slightly cooler temperatures are forecast for [Friday] and Saturday as a weak upper trough approaches the northern California coast," The NWS said on Friday. "Even so, most inland areas will remain warm."

"A gradual warming trend is then forecast from Sunday through much of next week as a high pressure ridge strengthens over the western United States. Thus, expect a prolonged period of very warm temperatures inland. Mild conditions will persist near the coast."

Prolonged period of very warm inland temps forecast with highs in the 90s to around 100 for several days. But, coast to remain mild. #cawx pic.twitter.com/yaMfwPRjg4
