The wider storm

A large area of high pressure built into central California from the east on July 6 and brought a hot and dry airmass to the region which persisted through July 8. This produced a period of excessive heat across the Kern County deserts. The high weakened on July 9 resulting in a slight moderation of daytime temperatures in the desert areas.
