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

...LOW RH VALUES AND GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS WILL ENHANCE FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS IN ZONES 264 THROUGH 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% with isolated areas below
20% will bring a slight risk for rapid spread of grass fires
today and Thursday, especially in Southern Mendocino, and Lake
counties. Portions of zone 283 will also experience similar
conditions. Minor warming trend expected late this week into the
weekend, with stronger warming likely early next week.
