FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
720 PM PDT Mon Jun 24 2024
...LOW RH VALUES AND GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS WILL ENHANCE FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS IN ZONE 264 ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.
...There is a slight chance for thunderstorms in southern
Mendocino and Lake counties...
.DISCUSSION...Gusty diurnally driven winds with minimum RH
values from 10 to 30 percent and hot daytime temperatures are
forecast through Tuesday. 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 slight
chance, for isolated high-based light showers, gusty outflow winds
and dry lightning on Tuesday in southern Mendocino and Lake
Counties. Confidence remains low.
