Warm and dry conditions persist today and Monday for the interior and areas at higher elevation. Expect breezy onshore winds to develop each afternoon and evening with gusts up to 30 mph along the coast, ridgelines and favored gaps and passes. Temperatures will gradually decrease through the upcoming work week, with improved RH recovery. Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified. Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds. ...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard... ...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY FOR A HIGH POTENTIAL OF PLUME DOMINATED FIRE BEHAVIOR OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND INTERIOR... ...RISK OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TUESDAY, ESPECIALLY OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS, WITH POTENTIAL STRONG/ERRATIC WINDS AND ISOLATED DRY LIGHTNING STRIKES AS WELL AS LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING ACROSS THE HIGHER MOUNTAINS... Temperatures will change little today with highs between 95 and 105 degrees common inland of the coast. Temperatures will then slowly lower each day, returning to normal by Tuesday. As such the risk for plume dominated fire activity will remain high through at least Monday or Tuesday with mixing heights 12,000 to 17,000 feet today and Monday across the interior, falling slightly by Tuesday. Humidities will remain moderately low, but an influx of monsoonal moisture will keep it elevated compared to the last few days. Thunderstorms will be possible each afternoon through Tuesday over the interior areas (mainly mountains and deserts), but will likely be less expansive than Saturday. The main threats with any thunderstorm will be primarily isolated dry lightning strikes and brief but strong/erratic wind gusts up to around 50 mph. There is a small risk for brief heavy downpours with localized flash flooding over elevations above 5,000 feet today, with a non-zero threat of flash flooding/debris flow concerns across the Bridge burn scar. The highest threat for localized flash flooding today will be the northern Ventura county mountains, near the Kern County line. Outside of thunderstorms, southwest winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts of 20 to 30 mph are expected over interior areas each afternoon and evening, with weak Sundowner winds of similar strength each evening. After Tuesday, conditions will likely remain typical for this time of year for the rest of the week. Being the hottest time of the year, seasonably elevated fire weather conditions will persist. $$ ECC028-251045- Santa Barbara County excluding Los Padres National Forest- Discussion for Santa Barbara ECC Dispatch 939 AM PDT Sun Aug 24 2025 ...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY FOR A HIGH POTENTIAL OF PLUME DOMINATED FIRE BEHAVIOR OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND INTERIOR... ...RISK OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TUESDAY, ESPECIALLY OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS, WITH POTENTIAL STRONG/ERRATIC WINDS AND ISOLATED DRY LIGHTNING STRIKES AS WELL AS LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING ACROSS THE HIGHER MOUNTAINS...
