Bay Area temperatures are expected to climb into triple-digit highs for the first time this year, elevating fire weather concerns as gusty winds pick up across the region.\u00a0<\/p>

The heat is expected to arrive sometime around Tuesday afternoon, Dial Hoang, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service’s Bay Area office, told SFGATE over the phone. Most parts of the Bay Area will see daytime highs soar into the upper 70s and lower 80s, while inland valleys will likely surpass 100 degrees. Thursday is expected to be the hottest day of the week as an upper level trough generates temperatures 10 to 15 degrees above normal for this time of year.<\/p><\/div>

\u201cIn terms of heat-related illnesses, we\u2019re looking at a moderate risk, especially for sensitive populations,\u201d Hoang said. People are encouraged to \u201cdrink plenty of water, take cooling breaks in the shade or indoors\u201d and avoid outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day, between 3 and 5 p.m.<\/p><\/div>

As the mercury rises and wind speeds increase, meteorologists tend to see fuels dry out, making it easier for fires to spread, Hoang said. He noted parts of Napa County could see gusts of 30 to 45 mph this week.<\/p><\/div>

\u201cFires could start rapidly if the winds are strong enough,\u201d Hoang said. \u201cBasically, we want people to remember one less spark means one less fire.\u201d\u00a0<\/p><\/div>
