FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
244 PM PDT Thu Jun 27 2024

...LOW RH VALUES AND GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS WILL ENHANCE FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS IN ZONES 264 and 277 THIS AFTERNOON...

.DISCUSSION...Seasonably normal temperatures continue this
afternoon 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, especially in southeastern 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.
