Excessive Heat Watch
Statement as of 5:00 am PDT on July 6, 2008


... Excessive heat watch in effect from Tuesday afternoon through
late Wednesday night...

The National Weather Service San Francisco Bay area has issued
an excessive heat watch for all inland portions of the San
Francisco and Monterey Bay areas... which is in effect from Tuesday
afternoon through late Wednesday night.

By Tuesday afternoon temperatures are forecast to warm into the
90s for most areas... and from 100 to 105 for the hottest inland
valleys. Temperatures on Wednesday will likely warm a few
additional degrees. In addition... temperatures will remain warm
overnight. Temperatures on Tuesday night will cool only into the
60s and lower 70s.

An excessive heat watch means that a prolonged period of hot
temperatures is expected. The expected hot weather can create a
dangerous situation in which heat illnesses are possible. Drink
plenty of fluids... stay in an air-conditioned room... and avoid
working in the sun. Check on relatives and neighbors... especially
those who are sensitive to the heat.

This excessive heat watch may need to be extended into Thursday.
