And thats whats going to bring a warmup in those temperatures. Were talking about a significant warmup from what weve been seeing. Take a look at todays microclimate highs. 90 for san jose, East San Jose a high of 94, morgan hill 97, milpitas 91. But i really want to focus on the east bay because were talking triple digit heat.

Also looking along the peninsula we can expect upper 50s along the coast. Daly city in the 70s. Even in San Francisco we will be climbing into the low 70s and mid70s for some areas like mission so expecting an overall very nice day for San Francisco but definitely a warmer one.

Over the next seven days here in the bay area, as we head into sunday, warming up to 75 degrees. Take a look at this, the next seven days were talking about 70s for San Francisco, so that warming trend will definitely also be impacting San Francisco as well, but really impacting inland areas.
