Given this combination of strong offshore winds and low relative humidity, critical fire weather conditions are expected for most of Southern California Counties, reminds Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna”
The NWS elevated the conditions from a fire watch to a full-fledged Red Flag Warning to take effect immediately!
Do not let the recent rains fool you into thinking we are out of the woods yet. Fuel moisture content remains low and the risk is high. Combine this with winds in the forecast and the danger increases.
This fire danger will likely lead us into the weekend, with no precipitation forecasted.
