A heat wave is expected in Southern California at the end of this week, but forecasters are not anticipating temperatures to break records. In the San Fernando Valley, temperatures could reach up to 96 degrees on Thursday and 100 degrees on Friday. The hottest temperatures are expected between Thursday and Sunday, according to Ryan Kittell, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in Oxnard. The spike in heat will mark a drastic departure from the cool temperatures Angelenos have enjoyed during the last two weeks of June gloom. As of Monday morning, the National Weather Service in Oxnard has not issued any heat or fire advisories, though they will continue monitoring the heat wave this week, Kittell said.
