It was another day of record setting heat across southwestern California, with temperatures soaring into the triple digits in many coastal spots.

In Los Angeles, it’s the third day in a row the temperature climbed to at least 100°.
In addition to setting daily records, downtown Los Angeles, the Los Angeles International Airport, and the Long Beach Airport have hit three consecutive days or more of 100° heat, an occurrence that hasn’t happened since the 1950s.
Other coastal spots soared into the 90s and 100s, record heat that has not been touched since the 1960s in some areas.
Cooling is expected within the next week with temperatures dropping back into the 70s by the end of the weekend.
