According to the National Weather Service, California will experience very hot temperatures for the inland valley beginning tomorrow (June 6, 2013) and continuing through the weekend. In fact, Saturday will be the hottest day, with temperatures reaching 110 degrees in some areas.

"It is now time for Californians to prepare for the possibility of several days of extremely high temperatures, particularly in areas where temperatures don't reach into the 90s and 100s very often," said California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) Secretary Mark Ghilarducci. "There is no better time than now to review emergency plans, replenish emergency supplies, learn first aid, CPR and methods to create cooler, more comfortable environments at work, home and play".
