A burst of sweltering-hot weather is expected to bake the Bay Area and Northern California early this week, sending temperatures into the triple digits in many inland cities and exacerbating fire conditions across the region.

The brunt of the mini heat wave is expected to hit on Tuesday and Wednesday as a massive ridge of high pressure builds over much of the American West. The swell of hot weather prompted meteorologists on Monday to warn of the potential for heat-related illnesses in the coming days, especially for residents of inland cities.
