A heat dome parked over the western United States was set to sizzle the Bay Area beginning Tuesday with near triple-digit temperatures inland and 80s on the coast.
A Heat Advisory was in effect for the Sonoma coastal range, North Bay interior mountains and valleys, and East Bay hills and valleys from 8 a.m. Tuesday to midnight Thursday night, the National Weather Service said. The high temperatures Tuesday are expected to be well above normal high temperatures for early June. The coast will see 70s to the lower 80s, bayside highs will be in the 80 to 90 degree range, the inland temperatures will range in the 90s to the 100-degree mark.
The Weather Service warned a northwest swell along the coast will create large breaking waves of 15 to 20 feet and bring an increased risk for sneaker waves, which can pull people into the water from rocks, jetties, and beaches. Inexperienced swimmers were advised to stay out of the water.
