FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
240 PM PDT Fri Jun 21 2024

.DISCUSSION...Dry weather will continue across the area through
the foreseeable future. Light and diurnally driven winds will
continue over the weekend as high pressure holds offshore while
a thermal trough remains anchored over the interior. The exception
will be over the King Range were gusts up to 40 mph are expected.
Minimum RH values from 10 to 30 percent are expected each afternoon
in the interior for the remainder of the week and this weekend.
Hot weather is expected this weekend with interior valleys warming
into the upper 90s to 103F. Above normal temperatures with low
daytime RH`s will most likely continue early to mid next week.
Temperatures are forecast to cool down to around normal during the
latter portion of next week as the potential for stronger
diurnally driven northwesterly winds increase.
