...Discussion from Monterey...

...Critical Fire Weather conditions are likely to develop later  this
week into next weekend as a strong cold front pushes through
leaving a very dry airmass in its wake with elevated post frontal
surface winds out of the N-NW...

Fire weather concerns are low at the moment with steady onshore
flow, seasonal temperatures and good overnight recoveries through
the middle of the week. Unfortunately, the chances for more
widespread rainfall out ahead of the next system has been trending
drier. The potential for a Diablo Wind Event with near record dry
fuels will be concerning as we head into the latter half of the
upcoming work week.

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

...GUSTY SUNDOWNER WINDS EACH NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT ACROSS
SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY WITH MODERATE HUMIDITY...

...POTENTIAL FOR STRENGTHENING NORTHWEST TO NORTH WINDS WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY FOLLOWED BY POTENTIAL WARM AND DRY SANTA ANA WINDS
NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...

Today through Tuesday, a gradual cooling trend will continue across
the area. By Tuesday, afternoon temperatures will generally range
between 75 and 85 degrees away from the coast with cooler
temperatures across the coast. With the cooling temperatures,
relative humidity will be a little bit higher with afternoon
minimums in the 15 to 35 percent range. Overnight humidity recovery
will be moderate to good. Gusty northerly  winds can be expected
across southern Santa Barbara county and the  I-5 Corridor with
gusts 25 to 40 mph during the evening and overnight hours.

For Wednesday through Friday, the cooling trend will continue across
the area with even the possibility of scattered light showers
Wednesday  across northern sections and some marine layer drizzle
due to a deep marine inversion. Relative humidity will remain at
moderate levels Wednesday and Thursday, but will lower into the
15 to 30 percent range on Friday. More significantly, northerly
winds will be on the increase  with gusts between 30 and 50 mph
likely in the northerly wind-prone areas such as southern Santa
Barbara county and the I-5 Corridor. By Friday  and Friday night,
there is the potential for even stronger northerly  winds with gusts
in excess of 60 mph possible. There is a low threat of critical fire
weather conditions on Friday and Friday night.

For Saturday and Sunday, the flow may shift to a more northeasterly
direction with weak to moderate Santa Ana winds possible. With the
offshore flow, warmer and drier conditions are expected with minimum
relative humidity dropping into the 5 to 15 percent range.
