Lightning Watch, Wildfires in the Angeles National Forest


On high alert today for potential lightning storms, Antelope Valley to Sierra Crest. High temperatures and southerly flow accompanied with some unstable air. Potential for some dry strikes, more storms on Friday and into Saturday. Morning report.



Today as predicted lightning did form over the Angeles National Forest near Valeyermo. Several small fires have been reported, one on Table Mountain near Wrightwood, and one in Kentucky Springs near the Angeles Forest Boundary. Los Angeles County also had three small starts along 165 east just south of Highway 138. Most of the storms did have some precipitation associated with them. Photos taken at Bob's Gap and Panarama Point.

For tomorrow more of the same, keeping an eye on hot temperatures associated with possible thunderstorms. End of evening report.
