...Discussion from Monterey...

Onshore winds will continue today with gusty winds through the
favored gaps and passes and along ridges. A roughly  1000 foot
marine layer will result in good recoveries to coastal  areas except
above 1000 feet will see moderate to poor recoveries. Dry weather
will continue with near normal temperatures today then a warming
trend develops late week, peaking this weekend.

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

...WIDESPREAD ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE INTERIOR AND SOUTHWEST SANTA BARBARA COUNTY FRIDAY
THROUGH  SUNDAY...

...WIDESPREAD MODERATE TO HIGH HEAT RISK FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

Elevated fire weather conditions will continue through Thursday
across  the interior due to hot and dry (8 to 20 percent humidities)
conditions  with locally breezy onshore winds each afternoon. Friday
through at least  Sunday, widespread elevated to brief critical
conditions will be common  away from immediate coasts due to very
hot, dry, and locally breezy  conditions with higher potential for
large plume dominated fire behavior  due to deep mixing heights. Hot
and dry conditions will also impact  southwest Santa Barbara County
as weak to moderate Sundowner winds are  likely (with gusts 35 to
50 mph). Humidities across the far interior are  expected to drop to
5 to 15 percent, while coastal valleys will drop to 15 to
25 percent. Warm overnight temperatures and poor to very poor
recoveries are likely over the interior.
