...Discussion from Monterey...

A Red Flag Warning will be in effect starting at 11pm tonight for
some elevated locations in the North Bay Hills, East Bay Hills,
Marin and Sonoma Coastal Ranges through late tomorrow evening  with
the North Bay Hills RFW continuing until 5pm Wednesday. RH  values
are generally in the teens with gusty north/northeast offshore flow.
As the hot and dry pattern persists, fuels continue to dry. ERCs are
drying in to the 70-90 percentile range across our  region. Combine
that with the expected surge of campers over the long holiday
weekend and obvious risks of fireworks, putting our area in a
combustible situation through next weekend. Fireworks should not be
used this year, and campers should be very careful with anything
dragging from trailers and securing campfires.

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

...POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY AND HOT SUNDOWNER WINDS TO BRING ELEVATED TO
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY,
I5 CORRIDOR, AND WESTERN ANTELOPE VALLEY FOOTHILLS LATE THURSDAY
INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...

For interior areas today, very warm and dry conditions coupled with
typical gusty onshore winds will bring elevated fire weather
conditions across the interior through this evening, resulting in an
increased risk for grass fire activity.

Beginning on Tuesday, and continuing into Monday, 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 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/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 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.
