Good morning! Temperatures are set to be below 100 for the first time in over two weeks. We stay in this nicer weather pattern through the weekend.

Cooler air is pushing into central California, and temperatures are expected to be below seasonal average starting today, on Thursday.

Bakersfield's average high for mid-August is 97, and we have a forecast high of 94 on Thursday. So yes, it will still be warm, but it's a big improvement compared to how hot we've been so far this month.

Tehachapi has a forecast high of 81 on Thursday. Lake Isabella will be around 90 degrees, and California City will be around 93.

We stay warm but comfortable through the weekend.
