FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
232 PM PDT Sun Jun 23 2024

.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 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.
