Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1031 AM CST Mon Dec 01 2025

Valid 011700Z - 021200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Southern California...
Current surface observations depict an ongoing offshore wind event
within favored terrain/gaps across portions of southern CA. Wind
gusts of 35-45 mph from the east-northeast are expected to diminish
later this afternoon as the offshore pressure gradient begins to
wane. In addition, fuels remain largely unfavorable for wildfire
spread and will further mitigate overall fire weather impacts.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0133 AM CST Mon Dec 01 2025/

...Synopsis...
On the backside of a positively tilted midlevel trough departing the
Rockies, surface high pressure will build over the Great
Basin/Intermountain West. This will yield an enhanced offshore
pressure gradient across southern CA, where moderate midlevel
northerly flow will be in place on the backside of the trough. These
factors will contribute to dry/breezy east-northeasterly surface
winds across the typical wind-prone mountains/valleys of Ventura and
Los Angeles Counties. While locally elevated conditions are
possible, marginal fuels should tend to limit the overall risk.
