...Elevated Fire Weather Conditions Through The Weekend...

Despite slightly cooler temperatures today, persistent breezy to
gusty northerly winds and lower humidity will result in elevated
fire weather conditions. Winds will  continue to be strongest along
the immediate coast, north to south oriented valleys, and higher
terrain. Conditions gradually  improve early next week as winds ease
and the marine layer  returns.

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

...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TONIGHT THROUGH
AT LEAST SUNDAY NIGHT DUE TO GUSTY NORTH WINDS WITH WARM AND DRY
CONDITIONS...

Rapidly increasing northwest to north winds are expected to continue
through early next week, peaking in intensity through tonight with a
secondary peak late Sunday into early Monday. Wind gusts of 30 to
50 mph will be common at times through the period for the Central
Coast, mountains of Santa Barbara, Ventura and northwest Los Angeles
County as well as Antelope Valley (strongest in the mountains and
deserts).  Isolated gusts to 65 mph will be possible in the
strongest periods of  wind across the Santa Ynez Range and
I-5 corridor. Meanwhile, the air  mass will warm and dry, with
widespread 8 to 15 percent humidities in  the mountains and deserts.
High temperatures between 90 and 100 will be  common inland of the
beaches. Poor overnight recoveries in the foothills are also
expected. This warm and dry air will descend into some coastal
foothills, including southern Santa Barbara County. As a result,
there  is an elevated risk for fast growing grass fires over much of
the area,  that could transition into wildfires where the fuel beds
are most  abundant and dry.
