...Discussion from Monterey...

Expect a warming and drying trend with temperatures across the
interior reaching the upper 80`s to lower 90`s by  Thursday. Despite
dry weather throughout the period, onshore flow  persists with fair
humidity recoveries for mid to lower elevations Overnight lows offer
good relief from the heat with widespread lows in the 50s. Gusty NW
winds can also be expected  by midweek along coastal areas, in the
gaps, and ridgetops. Conditions cool over the weekend but another
warming trend is expected into the next work week.


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



...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard...

Northwest winds will increase tonight, which will decrease the
marine  layer coverage and extent over Santa Barbara and San Luis
Obispo  Counties Wednesday and Thursday, but will also induce a
coastal eddy  which will keep the marine layer up for Ventura and
Los Angeles  Counties. Those northwest winds will gust between
25 and 40 mph through  Wednesday Night over most mountain areas, the
Antelope Valley, and  Santa Barbara County. Isolated gusts to 50 mph
are possible around  Gaviota and the I-5 Corridor. Brief northeast
gusts to 15 to 25 mph are expected over the mountains Thursday
morning, then onshore winds will return and strengthen Thursday
afternoon through Friday. Humidities  will remain elevated and above
40 percent on the coastal side of the  ranges, including southern
Santa Barbara County, except for humidities  of 12 to 25 percent
over the interior valleys and mountains.

Northwest winds will reform over the weekend which should lessen the
marine layer some. Warming and drying is expected next week, but
there remains a range of outcomes in terms of how much. Coastal
areas will likely remain under the marine layer will moderate
onshore flow.

NOTE: Beginning Monday June 3, NWS WFO Los Angeles/Oxnard will enter
the fire weather high season operations. This FWF product will be
issued twice daily including weekends. The morning issuance will
occur between 900 and 930 AM and the afternoon product will be
issued between 300 and 330 PM. As always, National Weather Service
