Hot and dry conditions continue as high pressure dominates

120 range across the lower deserts and in the 95-110 range in the
higher terrain. MinRHs will be in the 5-15% range with overnight
recoveries in the 30-50% range. Winds will tend to follow their
typical diurnal patterns. Wind gusts of 20-30 mph are possible this
afternoon and early evening, for the eastern districts. Elsewhere,
winds will remain fairly light with some occasional afternoon and
early evening gusts up around 15-20 mph. Tomorrow winds across the
region will be fairly light with some occasional gusts up around 20
mph possible in the afternoon. The hot and dry conditions will keep
fire danger high.
