Paso Robles hits 103 degrees

Paso Robles broke a decades-old heat record Saturday as the temperature climbed to 103 degrees at the airport.

According to the National Weather Service in Oxnard, the former record for the date had been 102 in 1973.

Temperatures along the coast were much lower, 62 in Morro Bay, 76 in Pismo Beach and 75 in Avila Beach.

San Luis Obispo saw a high of 96 at the airport and 94 at Cal Poly.

Sunday's temperatures are expected to taper off a bit with the inland areas reaching the 90s and the beach areas in the 60s.

Northwest winds from 15 to 35 miles per hour are expected Sunday afternoon, the Weather Service said.
