Bay Area temperatures to crank up again as heat wave drags on

The good news regarding one of the longest heat waves in Bay Area history was that the middle of a high-pressure system causing the thermometer to soar was moving through the region early Friday — albeit slowly, according to the National Weather Service.

The bad news, they said, is that it will bring another rise in temperatures that will not crest until Saturday — hardly refreshing considering the temperatures already were above or near 100 degrees in most places on Thursday.
