A Red Flag Warning is in effect for the North Bay Interior Mountains, Marin and Sonoma Coastal Ranges, East Bay Hills, and the Santa Cruz Mountains through late tonight with the North Bay Interior Mountains RFW continuing until Wednesday evening. Northerly winds are generally gusting in the 15-25 mph range, with Mt. Diablo gusting as high as 53 mph and Mt. St. Helena gusting as high as 63 mph early this morning. RH values will drop into the teens as a prolonged hot dry pattern takes hold this week. While fire weather concerns extend beyond the next couple days, winds should decrease and switch back to onshore later in the week. While this may help end the Red Flag Warning, any 4th of July fireworks could easily ignite the dry fuels. Campers should be very careful with anything dragging from trailers and practice good campfire etiquette including obeying any restrictions. Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified. Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds. ...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard... ...LONG DURATION OF ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TODAY INTO MONDAY AND POSSIBLY INTO MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK FOR AREAS AWAY FROM THE COAST DUE TO HOT TEMPERATURES, LOW HUMIDITIES, LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS, AND DRYING FUELS... ...POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY AND HOT SUNDOWNER WINDS TO BRING ELEVATED TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, I-5 CORRIDOR, AND WESTERN ANTELOPE VALLEY FOOTHILLS LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT... Beginning today, and continuing into Monday, high pressure will build into the region from the Eastern Pacific. This will bring a significant and long duration heat wave away from the coast from today through at least Monday, and possibly into the middle of 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/I-5 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 today through at least Monday 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. From late Thursday through Friday night, there is a 20 percent chance of reaching Red Flag Warning durations for southwest Santa Barbara county, and 40 percent for the I-5 corridor and western Antelope Valley foothills. 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 Monday. and possibly into the middle of next week. This is a serious fire weather event, and a hazardous heat event for human health. $$ ECC028-031000- Santa Barbara County excluding Los Padres National Forest- Discussion for Santa Barbara ECC Dispatch 856 AM PDT Tue Jul 2 2024 ...LONG DURATION OF ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TODAY INTO MONDAY AND POSSIBLY INTO MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK FOR AREAS AWAY FROM THE COAST DUE TO HOT TEMPERATURES, LOW HUMIDITIES, LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS, AND DRYING FUELS... ...POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY AND HOT SUNDOWNER WINDS TO BRING ELEVATED TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, I-5 CORRIDOR, AND WESTERN ANTELOPE VALLEY FOOTHILLS LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...
