Then well see temperatures cooling rather quickly for the coast and San Francisco. The cooldown in San Francisco should kick in by thursday. But for the valleys, odds are youre going to have to wait another day as you see the hot temperatures over the next couple of afternoons. Trending cooler on friday. For next weekend, stay tuned.
