..DISCUSSION FROM LOS ANGELES/OXNARD
...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH TUESDAY
ACROSS THE INTERIOR VALLEYS...MOUNTAINS...AND DESERTS DUE TO STRONG
ONSHORE WINDS WITH VERY WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS...
THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION WILL CONTINUE
TO WEAKEN AND SHIFT EASTWARD THROUGH TUESDAY, LEADING TO STRONGER
ONSHORE FLOW AND INCREASED MARINE LAYER INFLUENCE. THIS WILL LEAD TO
A COOLING TREND ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION, HOWEVER VERY WARM AND DRY
CONDITIONS CONTINUE TO LINGER ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS, DESERTS, AND
INTERIOR VALLEYS, WHERE TEMPERATURES IN THE 90S TO AROUND
100 DEGREES AND HUMIDITIES BETWEEN 8 AND 25 PERCENT WILL BE COMMON.
IN ADDITION, THERE WILL CONTINUE TO BE VERY POOR HUMIDITY RECOVERY
TONIGHT ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE SAN GABRIEL AND VENTURA
COUNTY MOUNTAINS AS WELL AS THE EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE ANTELOPE
VALLEY AND ADJACENT FOOTHILLS, WITH HUMIDITIES REMAINING IN THE
15 TO 25 PERCENT RANGE. ONSHORE WINDS HAVE INCREASED IN COVERAGE AND
SPEED TODAY ACROSS THE INTERIOR, WITH LITTLE CHANGE ON TUESDAY. WIND
GUSTS BETWEEN 25 AND 45 MPH WILL BE COMMON ACROSS INTERIOR AREAS
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS, WITH ISOLATED GUSTS UP TO
50 MPH IN THE FOOTHILLS OF THE ANTELOPE VALLEY. ADDING TO THE
DURATION OF THE FIRE THREAT IN THE ANTELOPE VALLEY AND ADJACENT
FOOTHILLS WILL BE ONSHORE WINDS CONTINUING TO GUST BETWEEN 25 AND
35 MPH DURING THE OVERNIGHT AND MORNING HOURS.
THE COMBINATION OF STRONG ONSHORE WINDS WITH VERY WARM AND DRY
CONDITIONS AS WELL AS DRYING FUELS WILL LEAD TO ELEVATED TO BRIEF
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH TUESDAY ACROSS THE INTERIOR
VALLEYS, MOUNTAINS, AND DESERTS. THE GREATEST FIRE WEATHER RISK
TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY WILL BE THE HIGHWAY 14 CORRIDOR THROUGH
SOLEDAD CANYON AS WELL AS THE ANTELOPE VALLEY AND ADJACENT FOOTHILLS
WHERE ONSHORE WINDS WILL BE STRONGEST. THESE HIGHER RISK AREAS WILL
LIKELY SEE BRIEF CRITICAL RED FLAG CONDITIONS (3 TO 6 HOURS EACH
DAY), BUT THE DURATION OF CRITICAL CONDITIONS IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE
SUFFICIENTLY LONG FOR THE ISSUANCE OF A RED FLAG WARNING. HOWEVER,
ANY FIRES THAT DEVELOP IN A STRONGER WIND CORRIDOR WILL HAVE THE
POTENTIAL FOR RAPID FIRE SPREAD WITH SPOTTING. STRONG ONSHORE FLOW
AND INCREASED MARINE LAYER INFLUENCE WILL MAINTAIN MILD CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE DISTRICT WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY, WITH A CONTINUATION OF
GUSTY ONSHORE WINDS ACROSS INTERIOR SECTIONS. A SLIGHT WARMING TREND
IS THEN EXPECTED FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND.
..DISCUSSION FROM MONTEREY
INLAND TEMPERATURES HAVE RETURNED TO NEAR SEASONAL AVERAGES AS
ONSHORE FLOW INCREASES AND THE MARINE LAYER HAS DEEPENED TO ABOUT
2000 FEET. EXPECT INLAND TEMPERATURES TO COOL A FEW ADDITIONAL
DEGREES ON TUESDAY AND THEN WARM A BIT LATER IN THE WEEK. BUT
OVERALL, NEAR NORMAL CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD. ONSHORE WINDS WILL BE LOCALLY GUSTY AT TIMES,
PARTICULARLY DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.
OTHERWISE, WINDS WILL MOSTLY BE LIGHT.
NOTE : ALL WINDS ARE 20-FOOT WINDS UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED.
THUNDERSTORMS IMPLY STRONG, GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS.
