Cooler temperatures and stronger afternoon and evening breezes along with daytime minimum humidity below 30% will bring a slight risk for rapid spread of grass fires on Wednesday and Thursday. Moreover, there is remote possiblility, less than a 10% chance, for isolated high-based light showers, gusty outflow winds and dry lightning on Tuesday in southeast Mendocino and Lake Counties. Confidence is by no means high, so stay tuned. CAZ201-250115- North Coast- 256 AM PDT Mon Jun 24 2024 .TODAY... * Sky/Weather............Partly cloudy then becoming sunny.
