Temperatures across the San Francisco Bay Area will remain near to slightly above normal on Tuesday before a longer stretch of warm weather begins midweek, forecasters said.
 In an advisory early Tuesday morning, March 10, the National Weather Service said an extended period of above-normal temperatures is expected to start Wednesday and continue through the weekend. Widespread minor heat risk is forecast from Wednesday through Saturday, with increasing areas of moderate heat risk possible Sunday into early next week.
High temperatures in inland areas are expected to climb into the mid-80s to lower 90s by early next week, while coastal areas will likely see highs ranging from the 70s to mid-80s, according to the advisory.
Forecasters said the warmer conditions could increase the risk of heat-related illness for people sensitive to heat, as well as pets and livestock, especially for those without adequate cooling or hydration.
The warming trend is expected to continue into next week across much of the Bay Area and Central Coast.
