The National Weather Service in Hanford on Friday reassured residents that such extreme heat is highly unlikely, with a 0% chance of the high reaching 120 degrees.
According to the NWS, there is a 6% chance the temperature could hit 115 degrees, a 36% chance it could reach 110 degrees, and a 66% chance it will be about 105 degrees on July 7.
