Good morning, Eastvale. Grab an extra bottle of water on your way out the door today—we are moving from "Spring" straight into "Summer" vibes this morning.
Here is what you need to know to navigate your Wednesday.
URGENT: March Scorcher & Heat Advisory
Hold onto your hats (and your sunscreen). A record-breaking heatwave is hitting the valley today.
The Peak: Expect a high of 95°F today.
The Advisory: The National Weather Service has issued an Urgent Heat Advisory effective from 10:00 AM today through Friday.
The Context: We are tracking temperatures nearly 30 degrees above seasonal norms. Please check on elderly neighbors and keep your pets off the hot pavement.
Community Recap: A Sea of Color
On a much brighter note, the Holi Festival at Eastvale Community Park this past Sunday was a massive success! Thousands of residents gathered to celebrate the Festival of Colors, marking one of our largest cultural events of the year. It was incredible to see the community come together in such a vibrant way.
Law Enforcement & Public Safety
Fatal Hit-and-Run Investigation Deputies are currently seeking information regarding a fatal hit-and-run that occurred early Sunday morning at the intersection of Mission Blvd and Campbell St. If you saw anything or have dashcam footage from that area, please contact the Jurupa Valley Station.
New Parking Law (AB 413) A quick heads-up for local drivers: under the new "Daylighting" law, parking is now prohibited within 20 feet of the approach side of any crosswalk. This is designed to increase visibility for pedestrians, so mind the gap to avoid a ticket!
Commute & Traffic Report
If you are heading out right now (6:30 AM), plan for extra time:
Limonite Ave: Already seeing significant backing up toward the I-15 South on-ramp.
Alternate Routes: Consider Schleisman or 68th if you’re trying to bypass the initial Limonite crawl.
Pro-Tip for the Heat
With temps hitting 95°F, your AC is going to be working overtime. If you haven't swapped your HVAC filters recently, doing it today can help your system run more efficiently during this spike!
Stay hydrated and stay safe out there, Eastvale!
