OFFSHORE FLOW PATTERN DEVELOPS SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY BRINGING HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS TO MUCH OF THE SOUTHLAND. FIRE DANGER WILL DANGER WILL PEAK ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY WHEN OFFSHORE WINDS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO GUST BETWEEN 20 AND 30 MPH BELOW AND THROUGH PASSES AND CANYONS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES. ISOLATED GUSTS OVER 30 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH FAVORED MOUNTAIN PASSES. THE OFFSHORE WINDS COMBINED WITH TRIPLE DIGIT HEAT...WIDESPREAD SINGLE DIGIT HUMIDITIES...AND VERY DRY FUELS WILL BRING NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TO PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHLAND...WHICH MAY PROMPT A FIRE WEATHER WATCH AS WE DRAW CLOSER TO THE EVENT.
HIGH TEMPERATURES, LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND TINDER DRY FUELS EQUAL FIRE WEATHER WATCH. RESIDENT USE CAUTION IN MOUNTAIN AREAS, DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS, LIMIT ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION.
