..DISCUSSION FROM SFOFWFMTR
...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS IN THE INTERIOR BAY AREA AND
CENTRAL COAST THROUGH MONDAY DUE TO STRONG WINDS AND LOW
HUMIDITIES...
STRONG AND GUSTY NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS CONTINUE TO BUILD
THROUGH SATURDAY BEFORE BECOMING NORTH TO NORTHEAST BY SUNDAY IN
THE HIGHER TERRAIN. EXPECT PEAK GUSTS GREATER THAN 30 MPH FOR MOST
AREAS, WITH AROUND 45 TO 55 MPH ALONG THE COAST, THROUGH GAPS AND
PASSES, AND ACROSS THE RIDGELINES. DAYTIME HUMIDITY RETENTION
WILL FALL TO 10- 25% ACROSS THE INTERIOR REGIONS AND HIGHER PEAKS,
WITH LIMITED OVERNIGHT HUMIDITY RECOVERIES. STRONG WINDS PERSIST
INTO THE EARLY PART OF MONDAY BEFORE DIMINISHING, BUT HUMIDITIES
WILL BE SLOW TO RECOVER AS A MODEST OFFSHORE FLOW CONTINUES INTO
THE EARLY PART OF THE WEEK.
..DISCUSSION FROM SFOFWFEKA
TEMPERATURES AND RH WILL REMAIN MODERATE THROUGH TODAY WITH
MARINE AIR KEEPING INTERIOR HIGHS IN THE MID 70S AND RH MOSTLY
OVER 30 PERCENT. STRONG NORTH WINDS WILL INCREASE TODAY WITH GUSTS
OVER 40 MPH IN EXPOSED AND WIND CHANNELED AREAS AND NEAR SHORE.
STRONG NORTH WINDS WILL REMAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON, BUT CONDITIONS

PERCENT. FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE HOTTEST, DRIEST, AND MOST
WINDY ON SUNDAY AND EARLY MONDAY AROUND THE RIM OF THE SACRAMENTO
VALLEY, PARTICULARLY IN LAKE COUNTY. FINE FUELS MAY BROADLY
REMAIN TOO GREEN TO SUPPORT LARGE FIRES, BUT WEATHER CONDITIONS
WILL BE CONDUCIVE TO EXTREME FIRE BEHAVIOR SHOULD FUELS BE
