...Discussion from Monterey...

Patchy fog is possible tonight especially in the valleys, with
coastal drizzle potentially along the Monterey Bay region.
Otherwise, look for the warming and drying trend to kickoff
tomorrow. Breezy offshore winds are expected across the  interior
mountains of the North Bay and East Bay Friday into  early Saturday.
With fuels remaining moist, significant fire  spread is unlikely.

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

...WARMING AND DRYING STARTING SATURDAY...

Today through Friday night, a very deep moist layer above 8000 feet
will keep humidities elevated everywhere. High temperatures will
continue to be well below normal, and gusty onshore winds will
affect  interior areas. Gusts of 25 to 40 mph with isolated gusts to
50 mph in  the Antelope Valley and wind prone areas of the San
Gabriel Mountains  are expected. Morning drizzle will remain
possible on the coastal side  of the ranges, and there is a small
chance of showers everywhere into  Friday morning. The highest
chances of rain will be over the the Los  Angeles and Ventura County
mountains. Amounts and rates will be light,  except for a less than
5 percent chance of a brief heavier shower or an  isolated
thunderstorm.

Temperatures will trend upwards this weekend into next week. Light
offshore flow is likely Saturday morning and possible Sunday
morning,  with gusts of 10 to 20 mph common. The offshore flow will
lead to rapid  drying, thus humidities of 15 to 25 percent are
expected be common  across the valleys and mountains of Los Angeles
and Ventura Counties.  Humidites will also fall back down to
8-15 percent across the Antelope  Valley and highest peaks of the
mountains next weekend.
