.DISCUSSION...
Dry, unseasonably warm air with highs in the upper 80s coupled
with dry fuels and gusts up to 25 mph will cause near critical fire
weather conditions this afternoon through early evening. This
morning`s south winds will veer more southwesterly this afternoon.
Confidence in reaching critical thresholds for winds is lower, so
cannot rule out gust reaching 25 to 30 mph and a brief period of
critical fire weather conditions.
Summer heat continues on Sunday and Monday, causing elevated fire
danger in the afternoons to early evenings. On Sunday, northeast winds
will be notably weaker, reducing fire danger compared to today.
Humidity levels begin to increase with an approaching system on
Monday, but winds will be stronger with southeast winds gusting in
the 20s and 30s.
