... Excessive heat warning remains in effect until 8 PM PDT this
evening...
... Heat advisory in effect from 12 PM to 7 PM PDT Saturday...

A strong ridge of high pressure will remain over the Santa Clara
Valley through the weekend. This will allow temperatures to rise
from the 90s into the lower 100s on Saturday. Temperatures are
forecast to cool a bit on Sunday.

This excessive heat warning and heat advisory is being issued
utilizing the new heat health warning system. It is specific to
the areas included in this product. It is targeted at the
elderly or infirmed... who might be much more sensitive to heat
and thus at greater risk. Individuals who fall into this category
should be especially careful by drinking plenty of water and
seeking a cooler location for the day if no air conditioning is
available. It is very important that friends or relatives check
frequently on those who might be prone to heat sensitivity.

Also... never leave children... elderly or pets unattended in
enclosed vehicles... even for a short time. Temperatures quickly
rise to life-threatening levels even when the windows are
partially opened.
