LOS ANGELES (KABC) — This week’s heat wave is breaking or tying daily temperature records across Southern California.
New records for the date were set at Long Beach (109 degrees), UCLA (105) and LAX (102), according to the National Weather Service. At 114 degrees, Burbank not only tied its record for Sept. 6, but also for the city all-time for any date.
Downtown Los Angeles also tied its daily record at 111 degrees, and the day marked only the fourth time since 1877 that the temperature ever hit that level.
Southern California’s heat wave is now expected to last through next week. An excessive heat warning that had been set to expire over the weekend has now been extended through Monday night. Many parts of the region are seeing temperatures well into the triple digits, with parts of the San Fernando Valley and Inland Empire pushing past 110 degrees.
