Hot this week, cooler by the weekend

23ABC Evening weather update June 22, 2026

Now that it's officially summer, it should be no surprise that the forecast looks hot.

Bakersfield will be around 100° Tuesday through Thursday.

Mountain towns will range from the mid 80s to around 90°, and desert areas will be well above 100°.

In addition to warm temperatures, we're track a surge of moisture into California Tuesday and Wednesday.

This will likely help initiate a few showers and storms, primarily south and east of Kern County, but a stray shower making it into eastern Kern is possible.

Looking ahead, temperatures look to fall this weekend, with 70s and 80s likely by Sunday.
