Warm and dry conditions persist through Monday resulting in elevated fire weather threats.

Hot and dry conditions will continue across many valleys, mountains, and deserts through early next week, with widespread temperatures between 95 and 105 degrees, with the Antelope Valley climbing as high as 107 degrees. The above normal temperatures will continue to bring Moderate Heat Risk, especially for sensitive populations. Minimum humidities of 5 to 15 percent will be common during this period across the interior, with continued poor recoveries in the mountains. The hotter air mass will bring enhanced mixing heights of 8,000 to 16,000 feet across the interior through early next week. The hot conditions combined with fuels at or approaching critical levels will continue to support the increased threat of large plume dominated fire behavior across the interior, including the Gifford Fire. Meanwhile, south to west winds of 12-25 mph with gusts 20-35 mph will remain common this afternoon and evening across the interior, then southwest to northwest winds of 15-30 mph with gusts 25-45 mph Sunday through Wednesday. The strongest winds will be focused across the interior mountains (especially I-5 corridor) and Antelope Valley. There is also the potential for enhanced sundowner wind activity across Southwest Santa Barbara county each evening from Sunday through Wednesday, which could bring temperatures into the 80s to lower 90s and humidities in the 15-35 percent range in wind prone canyons and foothills. $$ ECC028-101630- Santa Barbara County excluding Los Padres National Forest- Discussion for Santa Barbara ECC Dispatch 317 PM PDT Sat Aug 9 2025 ...WIDESPREAD ELEVATED TO LOCALLY BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE-WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR VALLEYS, MOUNTAINS, DESERTS, AND SOUTHWEST SANTA BARBARA COUNTY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH INCREASED RISK OF LARGE PLUME DOMINATED FIRE ACTIVITY...
