As the remnants of Huricane Hillary approach CA, some moisture may move up the coast and into the inland valleys and deserts for a 20-30% chance of thunderstorms with the potential for dry lightning. It is unclear as to the extent and duration for the county warning area. However firefighters should prepare for lightning watch on Friday afternoon and the possibility of erratic winds over fires especially in the mountainous regions of Southern California. Dry lightning and possible strong outflows may increase initial attack levels on Friday afternoon.
Forest fuels are still receptive to fire in Southern California and any dry strikes in the area may precipitate wildfires.
Northern CA is expected to have rain as early as Monday and may suppress the fire season at highr elevations in the Sierras with the possibility substantial wetting rain and snow flury's.
