FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE Eureka CA
315 AM PDT Sat Jun 22 2024
.DISCUSSION...Other than light coastal drizzle, 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.
