EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON

Dangerously hot conditions with temperatures up to 110 possible west of the Cascades and 100 east of the Cascades. Low temperatures as high as 75 degrees overnight in the valleys and mid slopes of Oregon and northern California. From Friday afternoon through Tuesday afternoon.

Extreme heat will significantly increase the potential for heat-related illnesses, particularly for those working or participating in outdoor activities.

The high daytime temperatures combined with warm overnight lows will result in high heat risk and heat-related stress. Daily high-temperature records will likely be broken. There is a chance to break the all-time June high-temperature record.
