...Discussion from Monterey...

A building marine layer is leading to cooler temperatures and higher
humidities across most of the region, barring the mountains of the
interior Central Coast where overnight humidity recoveries remain
poor. Breezy onshore winds are expected to develop each afternoon
and evening, with the strongest flow expected Thursday night into
Friday when gusts could reach 35-40 mph along the coast and at
higher terrain. Coastal drizzle is possible overnight into the
morning, but  accumulating rain is not expected.

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 INTERIOR VALLEYS, MOUNTAINS AND SOUTHWEST SANTA
BARBARA COUNTY THROUGH THURSDAY...

The combination of hot temperatures, very low humidities, and gusty
winds will bring widespread elevated to brief critical fire weather
conditions across portions of the valleys, mountains, deserts, and
southwest Santa Barbara this afternoon to evening in particular, but
continuing into Thursday.

Southwest to northwest winds of 15-25 mph with gusts 25-40  mph will
be common across the interior and southwest Santa Barbara  county
through Thursday, with isolated 30 mph gusts to 50 mph can be
expected near Gaviota and the I-5 corridor/western Antelope Valley
foothills tonight. 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
15-30 percent in  wind prone canyons and foothills.

A deepening marine layer will bring gradually improving fire weather
 conditions with below normal fire weather concerns for most areas
by  the weekend.

A return of hot and dry conditions is possible early to mid next
week with an outside chance of monsoonal thunderstorms focused
across northeast Los Angeles County.
