...Discussion from Monterey...

Weak upper level troughing and onshore winds will  prevail through
late week and the weekend. Onshore breezes will  continue to usher
in cooler temperatures. Model forecasts are then leaning toward a
high pressure system strengthening over northern California next
week. If this forecast verifies it`ll bring a  period of hotter and
dry weather next week, with temperatures  likely above early July
normals.

Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified.
Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds.

...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS INTERIOR
SECTIONS AND SOUTHWEST SANTA BARBARA COUNTY MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS
THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT DUE TO DRY CONDITIONS WITH WARM TEMPERATURES
AND GUSTY WINDS...

High pressure aloft will be replaced by a broad upper-level trough
overspreading the area for tonight and Thursday. This will result in
a  slight cooling trend for the area through Thursday, with low
clouds and  fog confined to areas near the coast. Away from the
coast, relative  humidity will drop into the 10 to 35 percent range
each afternoon with  poor to moderate overnight recovery. In
addition, there will be  increasing southwest to northwest winds
across the interior, gusting to  25 to 45 mph. The strongest gusts
are expected across the western  Antelope Valley and nearby
foothills, as well as the Interstate-5  corridor, during the
afternoon and evening hours. In addition, Sundowner winds are
expected to gust to 35 to 45 mph across the southwest Santa  Barbara
County mountains and foothills through Thursday night. The
combination of low relative humidity and gusty winds will bring
elevated to brief critical fire weather conditions across the
interior  sections, as well as the southwest Santa Barbara County
mountains and  foothills. There will be an increased risk for grass
fire activity in  these areas. At this time, the most favored areas
for brief critical  fire weather conditions would include the
Interstate-5 corridor, as well as the western Antelope Valley and
nearby foothills.

For Friday through the weekend, a gradual warming trend is expected
with dry conditions persisting away from the coast. Winds will be
generally weaker, limiting the fire-weather risk. However, locally
elevated conditions may occur with weak Sundowner winds across the
southwest Santa Barbara County mountains and foothills, and with
gusty  southwest winds across the Antelope Valley and nearby
foothills during  the afternoon and evening.
