On Monday, there could be some brief, isolated critical conditions in FWZ 280 in the mountains surrounding the Scott Valley; driven by low humidities and diurnal breezes. Another dry front is likely by midweek with strong, gusty winds, and more pronounced cooling and moistening. $$ ECC102-241530- East Yreka- Discussion for Eastern Klamath 219 PM PDT Sun Jun 23 2024 High pressure with warming and drying will return Monday into Tuesday. Critical conditions for a short duration on Tuesday, caused by this drying and diurnal afternoon breezes, are possible in the Shasta Valley and in the McCloud/Mt. Shasta area. Another dry front is likely by midweek with strong, gusty winds possible, with more pronounced cooling and moistening. $$ ECC003-241530- Alturas- Discussion for Modoc 219 PM PDT Sun Jun 23 2024 A combination of low RH and gusty winds will produce Red Flag conditions for at least a few hours this afternoon in Modoc County. High pressure with warming and drying will return Monday into Tuesday. Tuesday looks like the driest day with afternoon RH values dropping down to around 10%, but with winds staying low enough that the fire weather conditions are only elevated and not critical. Another dry front is likely by midweek with strong, gusty winds possible and should cause critical conditions unless humidities start trending upward. $$
