Good morning! Thursday is expected to be the peak of the latest warm-up across Kern. Widespread triple digit heat is likely in many neighborhoods.
Bakersfield has a forecast high of 104 on Thursday. Northeast Kern, near Ridgecrest, could get close to 110.
Mountain towns are likely to heat up to the low-90s, and the KRV will be around 100 degrees, too.
The reason? Strong high pressure built into the desert southwest. This is likely to keep us hot through the weekend.
