Well above normal temperatures are expected to continue for the rest of the work week as high pressure aloft resides over California. Elevated fire risk continues across the region due to poor overnight recoveries and dry fuels. This weekend, there is a chance for showers and thunderstorms across the area as high-level moisture arrives from the south/southeast. This has the potential to elevate fire risk due to lightning. Additionally, there could be gusty outflow from these storms. Otherwise, terrain-driven winds are the expected wind forecast through the next 7 days. .TUESDAY...
