The NWS has advised residents to stay hydrated throughout the week and check in on neighbors and loved ones during the heat.
Officials recommend staying in air-conditioned spaces when possible and avoiding outdoor activities, especially between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Experts also warn residents not to leave cars parked without shade for long periods and never to leave a person or pet inside a car without air conditioning, as temperatures can become deadly within minutes.
The public is also urged to recognize the signs of heat illness, including heat stroke and heat exhaustion.
This unusual heat cycle is being caused by a strong high-pressure system slowly sitting over the region, acting like a lid that traps heat and allows temperatures to build through the week.
Winds will stay light, with slight offshore flow in the mornings and weak onshore breezes in the afternoons, offering little cooling.
