🌡80 DEGREES TODAY?!? We're saying there's a chance. The map below shows the chance. Even if it doesn't reach 80°F, today could still be the warmest so far this spring for some inland areas, especially the #PDX metro. Warmest thus far at PDX was 78°F on Apr 2. #orwx #wawx pic.twitter.com/BIcJWrcsB6

Although temperatures today will still remain well-above normal, it will not be as hot as it was the last couple of days with highs in the mid 90s across the lower deserts. If spending time outdoors make sure to take all the necessary heat precautions. #azwx #cawx pic.twitter.com/O93fgHGfaa

Another warm day is in store for interior NorCal. Children should NEVER be left alone in a car, no matter the time of year. Sunlight can cause the inside of a car to heat up VERY quickly. 🚗 Always check the backseat 👜 Put something you need in the backseat as a reminder #cawx pic.twitter.com/37mja0Vk8h
