...Discussion from Monterey...

...Near critical fire weather continues across the district with warm
to hot temperatures, offshore winds, and very dry air...

Very warm and dry air continues to dominate the region through the
weekend, with near critical fire weather conditions across the
district. Daytime relative humidities remain low into Monday, with
weak recoveries overnight, especially above 1000 ft. Pulses of
offshore wind remain possible each night and morning, especially in
the higher elevations. Towards the middle  of the week, overnight
humidity recoveries improve and  temperatures drop as the marine
layer deepens.

Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified.
Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds.

...HOT AND DRY WITH ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE VALLEYS, MOUNTAINS, FOOTHILLS, AND DESERTS THROUGH MONDAY
WITH A LIGHT OFFSHORE WIND INFLUENCE ACROSS THE INTERIOR THROUGH
SUNDAY...

...ELEVATED RISK OF PLUME DOMINATED FIRES AWAY FROM THE COAST...

A weak offshore wind influence with gusts generally between 15 and
25 mph will reinforce hotter and drier conditions across the
interior this weekend. High temperatures this weekend will range
from 95 to 107 degrees across the interior, while humidities lower
to between 7 and 15 percent.  Coastal areas will be moderated by a
continued shallow marine layer influence and daily sea breezes.
Mixing heights will remain very deep over the weekend, generally
ranging between 10,000 and 18,000 feet, maintaining an elevated risk
of large plume dominated fires away from the coast. Some mid level
moisture and instability WILL continue to bring some mid level
clouds and buildups over the mountains and San Luis Obispo county
through this evening. with a 5-10 percent chance of a stray shower
or dry lightning strike. Significant cooling and improvement is on
track for Tuesday through Friday of next week.
