Napa County Braces For Triple-Digit Temps

NAPA COUNTY, CA — The National Weather Service has issued an excessive heat warning for most of the Bay Area including Napa County for the holiday weekend.

Most of the region was expected to go under a heat advisory earlier this week, but the NWS upgraded the advisory to an excessive heat watch as forecasts called for hotter temperatures.

“This means conditions are particularly dangerous to heat-sensitive groups and those without access to adequate cooling and hydration,” the NWS said.

The NWS advises staying hydrated, avoiding being outdoors during the morning and afternoon, and canceling outdoor activities during the hardest part of the day if possible.

The excessive heat watch will be in effect from 11 a.m. Saturday through 8 p.m. Tuesday.
Coastal regions will be under a heat advisory from 11 a.m. Sunday through 8 p.m. Monday.

Temperatures in Napa are expected to hit in triple digits three straight days next week, topping out at 108 degrees Tuesday.
