A heat wave could make for a balmy start to summer for much of Northern California, causing the Bay Area’s air quality to fall to unhealthy levels as temperatures soar into the 90s and 100s for much of the region.

The National Weather Service issued a heat advisory from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. Tuesday for almost all of the Bay Area, including the entire East Bay coastline, the Santa Clara Valley, the Santa Cruz mountains and the inland areas of Napa, Sonoma and Contra Costa counties. Also included were the Sacramento Valley and the northern portion of the San Juaquin Valley.

The balmy start to the season should linger for a couple days, with temperatures dipping only a few degrees on Wednesday before declining further toward the end of the week. Still, many places — such as San Jose and inland portions of the East Bay — could see temperatures remain in the 90s through at least Friday.in the region earlier this month was significantly shorter, with a drop of some 20 degrees within two days.
