####018001396#### FNUS22 KWNS 130844 FWDDY2 Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0243 AM CST Mon Jan 13 2025 Valid 141200Z - 151200Z ...EXTREMELY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE VENTURA VALLEY TO THE SAN BERNARDINO MOUNTAINS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA... ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA... ...Synopsis... Upper ridging will begin to impinge on the West Coast as a positively tilted mid-level trough meanders over the southern Rockies tomorrow (Tuesday). Guidance consensus shows deep-layer offshore flow over the southern California coastline, driven by a strong surface pressure gradient with offshore flow, overspread by a northeasterly 500 mb wind maximum. The deep-layer offshore flow will support widespread 20-40 mph sustained surface winds (with higher gusts) through at least Tuesday morning into early Tuesday afternoon, when RH will dip to at least 10-15 percent. Similar to Day 1 (today), the best chance for Extremely Critical conditions tomorrow/Tuesday will be over the Ventura Valley toward the San Bernardino mountains. Here, high-resolution guidance agreement is greatest in showing particularly dangerous wildfire-spread conditions lasting for several hours. ..Squitieri.. 01/13/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
