...RISK FOR RAPID FIRE GROWTH AND EXTREME FIRE BEHAVIOR WITH ANY
NEW FIRE STARTS, ESPECIALLY LATE FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...
.Weak to moderate Santa Ana winds will be on the increase,
peaking on Saturday. During the peak, gusts of 30 to 45 mph will
be common in the typical wind-prone areas of Los Angeles and
Ventura Counties. Meanwhile, the air will warm and dry, with
minimum humidities in the 8 to 20 percent range common by
Saturday. Fuels remain critically dry despite some minor greenup
from recent rains. There is a high risk for fast-moving fires
where the plants are driest and the winds are strongest, which
this targeted Red Flag Warning addresses.

effect from 2 AM to 6 PM PST Saturday.

for extreme fire behavior which would threaten life and
property.
