Some of these storms could produce locally heavy rainfall, especially along the Interstate 95 corridor, leading to localized areas of flash flooding. A developing storm system will spread spotty showers and thunderstorms from the upper Mississippi Valley to the central Plains. Showers and thunderstorms will continue across portions of Texas and areas west into New Mexico and California.

Hundreds of cooling cen- ters are open in senior cen- ters and libraries around California as high temper- atures statewide, some tri- ple-digit numbers, were ex- pected from Sacramento to San Bernardino and Fresno to Fullerton in a heat-wave forecast, according to the National Weather Service. With temperatures into the 100s inland and into the 90s in San Francisco ex- pected, people were looking for ways to cool off. Rikhardur Fridriksson, a tourist from Iceland, crouched under a row of trees near San Francisco's City Hall with a big map of the city unfurled be- fore him. He had planned to spend the day walking around outside. But after just 45 minutes in the heat was looking for ways to spend the day indoors, pos- sibly at museums. "I thought it would be au- tumn here," he said. "I was definitely expecting cooler weather." Nothing beats a cool lake on a hot day, said East Bay Regional Park District spokeswoman Carolyn Jones. "Apparently thou- sands of people agree. We've seen huge crowds at our 12 swimming pools, lakes, la- goons and beaches during this hot spell," Jones said. A popular way to cool off is take the tour of the old Hazel-Atlas sand mine at the Black Diamond Mines Regional Preserve in An- tioch, where it's 57 degrees year-round, Jones said. "In fact, naturalists even sug- gest bringing a coat," she said In Southern California, downtown Los Angeles hit 99 degrees before noon Wednesday. Triple-digit readings were already pop- ping up across the region, where a swath of moun- tains, deserts and inland valleys were under a flash- flood watch as tropical moisture from Hurricane Linda off Mexico flowed in, creating a recipe for thunderstorms and sudden flows that swell washes and creeks into torrents. The Los Angeles Depart- ment of Water and Power recorded the highest elec- tricity of demand so far this year — 5,926 megawatts at 4:10 p.m. Tuesday with an even higher reading ex- pected Wednesday. Meanwhile, Sarah Wallin sat in the shade by a shal- low fountain in a down- town park where her tod- dler rolled around and col- lected water in a bucket. She dipped her feet in the water. "Our (air conditioning), frankly, can't keep up with the heat," she said. Some schools are dis- missing students early amid a heat wave and air-quality alerts. South of San Francisco, the Campbell Union High School District, for the first time, ended the day early and banned outdoor activ- ities. But National Weather Service Forecaster Diana Henderson said there is re- lief in sight. "It won't be quite as bad toward the weekend. In (San Francisco) itself we are looking 86 de- grees on Thursday and then it plummets down to 80 de- grees by Friday," she said. With the steamy tem- peratures, the Bay Area Air Quality Management Dis- trict on Wednesday issued a Spare the Air Alert, which is used on days when it's hot and air quality is forecast to be unhealthy. In Sacramento, Gov. Jerry Brown is advising Californians to take pre- cautions during the year's first heat wave. Pacific Gas and Electric Company is advising cus- tomers to set their air con- ditioning thermostat at about 75 degrees and to turn off unnecessary lights and appliances. Associated Press reporters Linda Zhang in Los Angeles and Sudhin Thanawala in San Francisco contributed to this report.
