A persistent high-pressure ridge combined with warm ocean temperatures and weakened sea breezes has caused an extended heat wave in Southern California, with temperatures 15 to 22 degrees above normal. Downtown Los Angeles has experienced four consecutive days of temperatures at or above 100 degrees, setting records for October, with daily highs reaching up to 104 degrees. Temperatures are expected to remain significantly above average through the week, prompting health warnings and the use of cooling centers, while officials caution that relief may be modest and the heat could spell one of the warmest October periods on record for the region.
