A computer-implemented method may include receiving, by a computing system on an autonomous vehicle, local weather data and routing data of the autonomous vehicle, the autonomous vehicle including a sensor platform mounted on the autonomous vehicle. The method may include based on the local weather data and the routing data, predicting, by the computing system using a thermal model, a thermal loading and a temperature of a component(s) of a sensor platform at one or more future times, the thermal loading and the temperature being during an operation of the autonomous vehicle. The method may include sending an overheating warning to a controller of the autonomous vehicle based on a determination that the thermal loading or the temperature of the component(s) exceeds a threshold. The method may include reporting a degraded state of the autonomous vehicle to park prior to a predicted overheating of the component(s).
