FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
324 AM PDT Wed Jun 26 2024

...LOW RH VALUES AND GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS WILL ENHANCE FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS IN ZONE 264 ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.

.DISCUSSION...Cooler temperatures expected across the interior today
and Thursday while moist onshore flow pushes further inland for
coastal counties. Stronger afternoon and evening NW winds along
with daytime minimum humidity below 30% will bring a slight risk
for rapid spread of grass fires today and Thursday, especially in
southern Mendocino and Lake counties. Minor warming trend expected
late this week into the weekend.
