Will Livermore Surpass 100 Degrees Again?

LIVERMORE, CA — Livermore could see another day of temperatures topping 100 degrees Friday as the western United States continues to grapple with a heat wave.

Temps should remain well into the 90s this weekend, according to the National Weather Service.

Livermore is slated to remain under an excessive heat warning until 1 p.m. Friday.

"[Thursday] will be the peak of potentially life-threatening hot temperatures across the interior as the center of a strong high-pressure system overlaps southeastern California," the weather service's Bay Area office wrote Thursday morning. "Inland temperatures will be near record-breaking highs today, then slowly ease with each passing day Friday through the weekend."

Livermore is forecast to see moderate heat risk, which means people who are sensitive to the heat should take precautions.

The city's cooling center at the Robert Livermore Community Center (4444 East Ave.) will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday and Friday, and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Bottled water will be available. Get more details on the cooling center here.

The weather service advises residents to:

• Remain in air conditioning.
• Limit strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest hours.
• Not leave kids or pets in cars.
• Stay hydrated.
• Give extra care to the elderly, kids, pets and plants.
• Be wary of hot pavement when walking dogs.
• Be wary of rip currents at the coast.
• Wear light-colored clothing with a hat.
