Fire weather conditions will gradually improve tonight and Wednesday
as onshore flow brings cooler temperatures and higher humidity. A
gradual warming and drying trend develops Thursday, but a more
notable warming and drying trend develops Friday and peaks over the
weekend.

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

....RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM PDT TUESDAY FOR LOW
RELATIVE HUMIDITY GUSTY WINDS FOR THE INTERSTATE 5 CORRIDOR,
WESTERN SAN GABRIEL MOUNTAINS AND VENTURA COUNTY MOUNTAINS...

...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH TONIGHT FOR REMAINING
INTERIOR AREAS AND SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY DUE TO GUSTY WINDS
WITH WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS...

Conditions for the I-5 Corridor, Ventura County Mountains, and
Western  San Gabriel Mountains under the current Red Flag Warning
remain very  dry. However, sites are failing to meet Red Flag
Criteria as the  strongest winds have not developed. Therefore, the
current Red Flag  Warning will be allowed to expire at 6PM tonight.
Elevated fire weather  conditions are expected for multiple mountain
and interior locations  tonight, including western portions of the
Santa Ynez Range and western  Santa Barbara South Coast with another
push of northerly winds. Wind  gusts should be in the 15-30 mph
range, with the exception of the Santa  Barbara south coast where
gusts of 30-45, isolated 50 mph are expected.  Relative humidities
will range from 20-30%, but locally could fall to  15-18% in windier
mountain locations.

Conditions will improve over the area Wednesday as winds decrease
and  minimum humidities trend higher with the return of onshore
flow. Warm  and dry conditions remain over the interior. Some
isolated pockets of  single digit humidities are possible on
Wednesday, but winds over these  spots should be light. The main
area of wind activity Wednesday into  Friday will be western
portions of the Santa Barbara south coast, where  Sundowner winds
will reoccur each night into Friday night. Elevated fire weather
conditions are expected during that time. The next time of  concern
to monitor will be the weekend when temperatures increase again,
especially Saturday when onshore winds ramp up over the hot, dry
interior. There is also potential for another offshore wind event
late  next week.
