Summer heat is set to return here in Kern, and once it returns it's going to stay.
Bakersfield will be right around 100° starting on Thursday and lasting all the way through next week.
That means we could see multiple days in a row in the triple digits, and potentially our first heatwave of the year.
We define as heatwave as three or more days in a row at or above 100° for Bakersfield.
The good news about the incoming heat is that it doesn't look particularly intense.
Peak highs in the Valley will stay under 105°, which makes this a fairly run of the mill heatwave.
