...Discussion from Monterey...

A warming and drying trend will continue throughout late week.
Despite dry weather throughout the period, onshore  flow persists
with fair humidity recoveries for mid to lower  elevations, and
overnight lows offer good relief from the heat  with widespread lows
in the 50s. Gusty NW winds can also be  expected through late week
along coastal areas, in the gaps, and  ridgetops. Conditions cool
slightly over the weekend, but another  more robust 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 continue to lessen the marine layer coverage
and  extent over Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties through
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 tonight
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. 5 to 10 degrees of warming and drying is expected
 next week starting Tuesday or Wednesday, but the marine layer will
limit that warming to the valleys and mountains. Gusty onshore flow
will increase the risk for grass fires over the interior mountains
and valleys.

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
forecasters are available 24/7 for spot forecast requests and
