Records for high temperatures are not simply being broken around the Bay Area, they are being Shattered:

SF's former all time record: 90 degrees for May 15.  Thursday: 97 degrees
Oakland's former all time record for May 15: 87 degrees.  Thursday: 98 degrees..
San Jose  99, trumping is all time record of 96. "Temperature records also fell in Santa Rosa (100, beating the old mark of 97), Napa (100, old mark 97) and Richmond (98, old mark 87)."
