914 AM PST Fri Nov 22 2024
...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TODAY AWAY
FROM THE COAST DUE TO LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS AND VERY LOW SINGLE
DIGIT HUMIDITIES...
...WIDESPREAD WETTING RAINS LIKELY WITH SIGNIFICANT COOLING AND
MOISTENING TONIGHT THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY...
.DISCUSSION...
High pressure aloft will peak through today. An extremely dry air mass
has moved into southwest California focused over the mountains, foothills,
and many valleys, where many stations are seeing humidities in the
4 to 10 percent range. Meanwhile, southeast to southwest wind
gusts of 20 to 30 mph will be common over the mountains and foothills, especially
this afternoon. Due to the very dry air, widespread elevated fire weather
conditions are expected today away from the coast, with isolated brief critical
conditions over the windier mountains and foothills.
A significant pattern change will commence tonight and persist through
Wednesday. Confidence is high in widespread rain over the region, and
that impacts will be minimal through at least Sunday. Confidence on the
details for Monday through Wednesday however remains low. The most
likely outcome is for widespread light to moderate rain with impacts
focused on the roads. The chance for rain over Thanksgiving Thursday
and Friday is lowering, with some model solutions showing the potential
for some offshore winds and lowering humidity to develop on Thanksgiving.
