- Highs in the mid-80s through Friday with a slight chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms as tropical moisture from Iselle moves in. The weekend turns sunny and cooler as high pressure shifts east, with temperatures dropping to seasonal levels next week and another chance of showers mid-week.
An Extreme Heat Watch is in effect for the Big Bear area. The National Weather Service has issued the alert as temperatures are expected to reach dangerous levels. Residents should stay hydrated, limit outdoor activity during peak heat hours, and check on vulnerable neighbors and pets.
Several events are scheduled for today despite the heat: Busy Bee (drop-in, no registration needed), the Locals Lawn Party at Sunnybrook Estate, and Swim Beach. Those attending should take precautions and stay cool.
