.DISCUSSION...
Excessive Heat Warning through Saturday morning in the San Joaquin
Valley as 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 thunderstorms in the Sierra Nevada as high-level moisture
arrives from the south/southeast. This has the potential to elevate
fire risk due to lightning. A Red Flag Warning is in effect from 11
AM Saturday through 9 PM Sunday due to dry lightning concerns in the
Sierra Nevada.
