...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER THREAT CONTINUES THROUGH MONDAY...

Hot and dry conditions continue through Monday, elevating the fire
weather threat. The threat is greatest in the interior mountains
above 1500 feet, where overnight humidity recoveries remain poor.
Breezy onshore winds will develop each afternoon and evening, with
gusts reaching 30-35 mph through gaps and passes, within favored
valleys, and across higher terrain. The pattern changes on Tuesday,
when the ridge breaks down and allows for a return to cooler
temperatures and coastal drizzle, but also maintains gusty afternoon
winds.

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

...WIDESPREAD ELEVATED TO LOCALLY BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE-WEATHER
CONDITIONS FOR VALLEYS, MOUNTAINS, DESERTS, AND SOUTHWEST SANTA
BARBARA COUNTY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH INCREASED RISK OF LARGE
PLUME DOMINATED FIRE ACTIVITY...

Hot and dry conditions will continue across many valleys, mountains,
and deserts through Tuesday, with widespread temperatures between
95 and 105 degrees, with the Antelope Valley climbing as high as
108 degrees. The hot temperatures across the interior will bring
Moderate to High Heat Risk, especially for sensitive populations.
Minimum humidities of 5 to 15 percent will be common during this
period across the interior, with continued poor recoveries in the
mountains and Antelope Valley. The hotter air mass will bring
enhanced mixing heights of 8,000 to 16,000 feet across the interior
through at least Tuesday. The hot conditions combined with fuels at
or approaching critical levels will continue to support the
increased threat of large plume dominated fire behavior across the
interior, including the Gifford Fire.

Meanwhile, southwest to northwest winds of 15-25 mph with gusts
25-40 mph will be common across the interior and southwest Santa
Barbara county today through Wednesday, with isolated 30-35 gusts
45-50 mph can be expected near Gaviota and  the I-5 corridor Monday
night. The strongest winds will be focused across the interior
mountains (especially I-5 corridor) and Antelope Valley, as well as
gusty sundowner winds across southwest Santa Barbara county, mainly
from Gaviota to San Marcos Pass, where temperatures could rise into
the 80s to lower 90s and humidities falling to 10-25 percent in wind
prone canyons and foothills. The strongest and most widespread
sundowner winds are expected Monday night.  The combination of hot
temperatures, very low humidities, and gusty winds will bring
widespread elevated to locally brief critical fire weather
conditions across portions of the valleys, mountains, deserts, and
southwest Santa Barbara county the next few days.
