The Bay Area is set for its hottest stretch yet, with inland temperatures potentially over 100°F this weekend, but the bigger danger is hazardous surf from distant hurricanes that has already prompted water rescues. Forecasters warn of sneaker waves and strong rip currents, urging people to stay out of the water and off jetties, while dry conditions elevate wildfire risk inland.
