...RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 2 PM TO 8 PM PDT
TUESDAY FOR GUSTY WINDS AND LOW RH FOR FIRE ZONE 281...

While high pressure remains in control and produces continued hot
temperatures across the region, a weak trough will pass north
along the coast today. This will produce critical conditions with
stronger winds and low humidity in and around the Shasta Valley.
At the same time an isolated thunderstorm or two could pop up in
the northern part of the region this afternoon into early this
evening. Wednesday onward, we cool slightly and return to a more
dry and stable southwest flow.
