    Up to the low 90s? Is this a joke, or is there something I’m missing?

    The real danger is fire. Slightly elevated heat and high winds are a recipe for disaster.

      Heat advisories are not just for the heat, but for heat outside of expectations. You wouldn’t give a heat advisory for a 90°F day in Florida, but in mid-autumn in southern California? Definitely appropriate.

      People might have their ACs off for the season, and the temperature is dangerous if no precautions are taken.
