Fire Weather Forecast for southern Oregon and northern California
National Weather Service Medford, OR
404 AM PDT Wed Jul 16 2025

...Isolated thunderstorms Thursday afternoon/evening, especially
in northern Klamath/Lake counties...

...Near critical southwest to west winds and low relative
humidity Thursday afternoon and evening for southern Lake and Modoc
counties...

.DISCUSSION...Hot, dry weather continues today. While there is a
low chance (5-10%) of thunderstorms over the mountains, especially
in NorCal this afternoon/evening, most areas will see nothing,
except for cumulus buildups. Marine layer will remain present
along the coast. Thunder potential increases Thursday, especially
east of the Cascades. Gusty southwest to west winds could also
coincide with near critical RH values in some areas. Slight
cooling can be expected late this week into the weekend, though
likely at the expense of breezy winds. Further cooling is
anticipated into early next week.
