We have the incredibly uncomfortable combination of late summer desert heat and tropical humidity thanks to a storm that died in the Pacific out west of us.
But it creates magnificent thunderheads above the mountains that ring the Coachella Valley. This one is east of us, likely raining on the Joshua Tree National Park. Taken just in front of our house.

101.6F, 33% humidity, heat index is 106.9F.
(I am indoors, air conditioning is on, so I am fine... but.... yeesh).
(and yes, yes, some future September 9th, the universe willing, I will look at this fondly "look! it was only 106.9F heat index, instead of 134F! Do you remember when we didn't have to jump in the refrigerated survival pods during heatwaves?")

113.F predicted Wet Bulb Globe Temperature at the end of Victory Blvd in Woodland Hills today at 5pm. (that is squarely into the black, i.e. fatal range without cooling available). 45C WGBT... Which may be an artifact of the calculations/weather model too.. (i.e. the closer you approach those limits, the more that humidity fights the temperature). I still would not be out there, myself. #heatwaves #humidity #CAwx

While widespread Extreme Heat remains the main concern today (and tomorrow), there is a chance for mountain thunderstorms today. With any storm that develops there is a threat of heavy rain, lightning, and gusty, erratic winds. -
NWS Los Angeles (9/9/26)
"The next two days (Today and Thu) will feature very dangerous and unusual heat. High pressure over AZ will bring 596 dam hgts to Srn CA today and 595 dam hgts Thu. SFC high pressure to the NE will bring 2-3 mb of offshore flow this morning both from the N and E. This one two punch will bring 3 to 6 locally 8 degrees of warming to areas south of Pt Conception and a whopping 10 to 15 degrees north. This will lead to max temps of mid to upper 80s at the beaches, 90s across the rest of the csts and 100 to 108 degree temps for the vlys. The big kicker for this two day event will be the humidity which will be much higher than normal due to the remnants of Hurricane Marine and the much warmer than normal sea sfc temps. This extra humidity will make the temps feel much worse and will lessen the bodies cooling abilities. This humidity as well as the strong inversion will also lead to much warmer than normal overnight lows which will make heat recovery difficult for people without Air Conditioning.
Extreme Heat Warnings are in effect today and Thursday. The added
humidity really make this heat event much more dangerous than previous ones. All residents should limit your outdoor activities during the afternoon, seek air conditioned spaces, and take lots of breaks."#heatwave #CAwx #LosAngeles #climateemergency #VenturaCounty #SantaBarbaraCounty

It's 86F already (!! 6:35am) over in Agoura. It's supposed to get to 94F (!!) in Santa Barbara... by the ocean. Where it's not supposed to get that hot.
(Except that one time in historical record, which was quite the exception, and not extremely reliable, and questionable, for sure).

Wow, air temps already rising, it's only 6:20am in the morning.
(76.7F outside before the sun is up).
It's going to be H.O.T. today.

Officially a 5x5 tree struck by lightning. Rain on it, no current smoke, they are keeping an eye on it. Rain is falling on the fire area. At least 12 dry lightning strikes in the area so asking them to look around for anything smoldering. Released all LA County copters earlier. 9/8/26 1542 #wildfires #VedderIC #CAwx #VenturaCounty

All dozers cancelled. They released another engine, they are looking for any holdovers from the dry lightning strikes before releasing anyone. 9/8/26 1530 #wildfires #VedderIC #CAwx #VenturaCounty
