Fire Weather Watch


...FIRE WEATHER WATCH ISSUED FOR THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY MOUNTAINS FOR THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING FOR BREEZY WINDS AND VERY LOW HUMIDITIES....AN UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL PARK ITSELF OVER CALIFORNIA THROUGH THE REST OF THIS WEEK...BRINGING A VERY DRY AIR MASS TO THE MOUNTAINS. THIS DRY AIR WILL POTENTIALLY BRING WIDE SPREAD SINGLE DIGIT HUMIDITIES TO THE MOUNTAINS WITH VERY POOR OVERNIGHT RECOVERIES. MEANWHILE...ONSHORE FLOW WILL STRENGTHEN THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. THE COMBINATION OF THE VERY LOW HUMIDITIES...BREEZY ONSHORE WINDS...AND SUFFICIENTLY DRY FUELS MAY CREATE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS OVER THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY MOUNTAINS THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING.
