"We're breaking so many records, it's definitely pretty clear that it's one of the warmest Marches we've ever had. It's more similar to the heat waves we see in the summer. - National Weather Service meteorologist Bryan Lewis"
"Dangerously hot temperatures will continue all week. - National Weather Service's Oxnard office Thursday morning forecast"
"Palmdale, Lancaster and Paso Robles all set new all-time March temperature records Wednesday, reaching 92, 93 and 95 degrees, respectively. So did Indio and Thermal, where it reached 107 degrees on Wednesday, respectively, and Palm Springs, where it hit 105."
Southern California is experiencing an unprecedented late-winter heat wave that has shattered dozens of daily temperature records and set new all-time March records across multiple locations. On the final day of winter, temperatures are expected to remain 20 to 30 degrees above normal, with inland valleys reaching triple digits while coastal areas stay in the 80s and 90s. Locations including Palmdale, Lancaster, Paso Robles, Indio, Thermal, and Palm Springs all set new all-time March records Wednesday. National Weather Service meteorologists describe this event as one of the warmest Marches on record, comparable to typical summer heat waves. Extreme heat warnings remain in place for inland areas through Friday, with officials warning of heat-related illness risks. Moderate temperature relief is expected to begin this weekend as the high pressure system weakens.
