Sentencing will happen Friday for the man who ambushed and murdered Sacramento Police Department Officer Tara O'Sullivan. Adel Ramos opened fire at O'Sullivan on June 19, 2019, while she and four other officers were handling a domestic violence situation along Redwood Avenue in the north Sacramento area. After O'Sullivan was shot, Ramos kept other officers from pulling O'Sullivan to safety by continuing to fire at them. It took nearly an hour before they were able to retrieve her.

Friday's temperatures will inch closer to 100 degrees in Northern California, but an even hotter day is expected this weekend. Meteorologist Ophelia Young said Friday's forecast high for downtown Sacramento is 98 degrees. The average for this time of year is 90 degrees. Saturday will feel even hotter as it is likely to reach 100 degrees. If it does, Young said that would make it the third triple-digit day of the year so far. The last two days were May 30 and 31.

California is starting to head into the time of year when wildfires have the highest chances to not only burn quickly but also be more destructive. While fire officials would argue that wildfire season is year-round in the state — this was evident with the wildfires that ravaged the Los Angeles area in January — as dangerous fires could spark anytime, there is a time of year when wildfire activity picks up.
