Winter heat wave smacks Bay Area

[yuiyoshida]

It’s just your basic mid-February beach weather.

Near-record temperatures are expected across the Bay Area on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with the coast likely to host the hottest spots, according to the National Weather Service.

Pebble Beach and Santa Cruz could see 80 degrees over the next few days, while Half Moon Bay could hit the mid- to upper 70s, said weather service forecaster Steve Anderson.

San Jose and Oakland are expected to hover in the mid-70s, and San Francisco is likely to be just a few degrees cooler.

1. We will be in the mid 80's along the Central Coast

We have had high surf advisories all week and the surfers have been out in droves.
Monday is a holiday so I expect a lot if folks from inland to be here over the week end. It is going to be a great beach weekend.
Surf's Up!

2. Central Coast?

I used to live in Santa Barbara.. for a while. I miss it there, but its too expensive to live there any longer!

3. And I don't have to be back at work until the 18th.

I'll try not to enjoy this weather too much. I know we'll pay for it later!

6. BLEH!

ITS currently 72 degrees which means its 82 degrees indoors at my house. Pretty soon I can crank up the fan, or ... just wear less clothing! Thank goodness its dry heat.

7. Indeed. I wish I had some pajama pants instead of sweats.

The fan has been a savior.

The 2015 Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival® now celebrating its 48th year, is one of California’s most prominent celebrations of Asian traditions. Each year, over 200,000 people attend this dazzling display showcasing the color and grace of the Japanese culture and the diversity of the Japanese American Community.

If only there was a fast train between down here and up there...

10. Could you cut about 30 degrees off the top and send it to us in the East?

We're expecting a high of 12 on Sunday with possible 45 mile an hour winds. New England will have it even worse, as well as the potential for another foot of snow.

The same ridge that keeps you warm is putting us in the deep freeze.

12. Trade you heat for water...

[starroute]

15. Wait a bit till it all melts

Then apply to Boston.

16. With our drought...

we would love the water!

11. 87° today, forecast 90° for tomorrow

down here in the bellybutton of the beast (Yorba Linda).

13. 82 today on the Central Coast, probably the same tomorrow. Light breeze. Nice. Plus ->

10 inches of rain in the last two weeks.

18. It's still winter, right? nt

[yuiyoshida]

19. Technically yes but

Ya know, this is California.. so we rarely get any of the white stuff unless its in the Sierra Nevadas!

[Jamaal510]

20. And it hasn't even

been that warm and dry around the Humboldt Coast.

[yuiyoshida]

21. We saw no rain at all in January

Maybe we will get more this month. I heard some guy talking about, WITH all of this heat its "Earthquake" weather. I wanted to laugh at his ignorance..there is no such thing... But some people got it in their heads that warm weather cause Earthquakes, if that were true.. Mexico would have major earthquakes every day.
