Abnormally, potentially record-breaking temperatures will impact southern California and stretch north toward the Bay Area and Central Valley through next week.

Heat Wave Mainly For Coastal California Through Much Of Next Week Bullet Points:Prolonged, Dangerous Heat Wave: Higher than typical October temperatures will impact Coastal Southern California up through the Bay Area and Central Valley through next week. Major to Extreme HeatRisk and several daily high temperature records are expected this weekend well into next week. Heat of this intensity can endanger anyone without adequate cooling or hydration. High Temperatures, Little Night Relief: Temperatures will run 15 to 20 degrees above normal, pushing coastal areas well into the 90s and adjacent urban and some Central Valley areas around 100°F. Overnight lows in the mid to upper 70s in the Los Angeles and San Diego urban areas will provide little relief through the heat wave. Stay Safe in Extreme Heat: Protect yourself and others by staying hydrated, using air conditioning or cooling centers, limiting sun exposure, and checking on vulnerable relatives and neighbors. Never leave children or pets unattended in vehicles, as interior temperatures reach extreme levels within minutes. Late-season fall heat waves can be just as dangerous as summer heat. Maps Overview:Max High Temps Through 10/9: Shows high temperatures ranging from 85°F to 105°F+ (orange to dark red) across Coastal California, the Bay Area, Central Valley, and Southern California (including Sacramento, San Francisco, King City, Los Angeles, and San Diego). Max HeatRisk Through 10/9: Shows widespread 3-Major (red) and 4-Extreme (purple) HeatRisk along the California coast and Southern California regions, with 1-Minor (yellow) to 2-Moderate (orange) risk inland.

Rip currents are possible this weekend along the East Coast from Maine to Florida. Always follow advice from the local beach patrol and flag warning systems. And check your beach forecast before heading out: weather.gov/beach

Map titled "U.S. Rip Current Risk" showing composite data for September 25-26, 2026, from the NWS National Hurricane Center.

Legend:

Risk Levels: High (red), Moderate (yellow), Low (white), No Data (grey).

Cyclone Types: Depression (red circle outline), Storm (red icon), Hurricane (red hurricane symbol), Post-tropical cyclone or remnants (red circle with 'x').

Map Overview:

East Coast: High (red) rip current risk spans along coastal areas from Southern Florida through Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Long Island, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts, with Moderate (yellow) risk extending into Maine, portions of Florida, and Puerto Rico.

Gulf Coast: Mostly grey/white with localized Moderate (yellow) and High (red) risk along the Florida Panhandle and southern Texas coast.

West Coast: High (red) and Moderate (yellow) risk along Southern California.

Offshore Tropical Systems: Hurricane Odalys and Hurricane Polo are shown south/southwest of Mexico in the Pacific.

Rip Currents: Know Your Options. Rip currents are powerful currents of water moving away from shore. They can sweep even the strongest swimmer away from shore. If at all possible, swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current: 1) Relax, rip currents don't pull you under. 2) Don't swim against the current. 3) Swim out of the current, then to shore. 4) If you can't escape, float or tread water. 5) If you need help, yell or wave for assistance. The image shows a rip current as a narrow flow of water moving in a line directly away from the beach, with waves on either side moving in the opposite direction towards the beach. Arrows point away from either side of the current and into the waves, parallel to the beach, indicating the path of escape from the rip current.
