...Discussion from Monterey...

...A Red Flag Warning is in effect from Monday evening through Tuesday
evening for the East Bay Hills, Marin and Sonoma Coastal  Ranges,
and the North Bay Interior Mountains Monday evening  through late
Wednesday afternoon...

A Red Flag Warning has been added to the list of  hazards along with
the Excessive Heat Warning which remains in  place for most of our
interior locations, and a Heat Advisory for  some locations closer
to the shoreline that may still see minimal  influence of the Marine
Boundary Layer. Minimum RH values inland  for the upcoming week and
beyond will mostly be in the teens, with some single digit values in
areas of higher elevation. Overnight  RH recover will be poor to
non-existent as the heat wave persists  through the week, and
potentially into next weekend. The hot and  dry conditions continue
to move ERCs into the 70-80 percent range. With the long holiday
weekend, and the many outdoor activities  expected, people need to
be careful with any campfires, and  fireworks should not be used.
Any wildfire that ignites will have  the potential for rapid spread.
Lightning is the only natural  ignition for wildfires and there are
no thunderstorms in the  forecast.

Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified.
Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds.

For interior areas today, it will be another very warm and dry day
with typical gusty onshore winds in the afternoon and evening hours.
 For the interior valleys, mountains, and deserts, humidity values
are expected to lower to between 10 and 20 percent today. The very
warm temperatures, low humidities, and locally gusty onshore winds
will bring elevated fire weather conditions across the interior
valleys, mountains, and deserts today.

Beginning on Tuesday, and continuing into next weekend, high
pressure will build into the region from the Eastern Pacific. This
will likely  bring a significant and long duration heat wave away
from the coast from Tuesday through at least Sunday, and possibly
into early next week. High temperatures between 100 and 110 degrees
will be common across the interior during this period, with
temperatures potentially rising to between 110 and 115 degrees
across the Antelope Valley and San Luis Obispo County interior
valleys during the peak of the heat Thursday through Saturday.
Overnight lows will also remain very warm (especially in the
mountains, foothills, and Antelope Valley), adding to the dangerous
heat wave. Widespread humidity values between 7 and 15 percent will
likely occur across the interior during this period, along with poor
humidity recoveries, especially in the mountains, foothills, and
Antelope Valley. Typical gusty onshore winds are expected across
interior sections in the afternoon and evening hours, with gusts of
20 to 35 mph common. There is also the potential for gusty
sundowner/I5 corridor winds late Thursday into Friday night which
could bring hot and dry conditions into portions of southern Santa
Barbara county.

Given the very hot temperatures, low relative humidity, and locally
gusty winds, an extended period of elevated to brief critical fire
weather conditions are likely from Tuesday through at least Sunday
for valley, foothill, mountain, and desert locations. Elevated to
critical fire weather conditions may expand into southern Santa
Barbara county if the sundowner winds develop late Thursday into
Friday night. The hot and unstable conditions will also increase the
threat of large vertical plume growth for any fires that develop
across the interior. The very hot and dry conditions will also cause
a significant drop in both live and dead fuel moisture levels this
week. These drying fuels combined with the expected fire weather
conditions and increased outdoor activities associated with 4th of
July festivities this week will cause the large fire threat to
become high for areas away from the coast Tuesday through at least
Sunday. This is a serious fire weather event, in addition to a
hazardous heat event for human health.
