...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PARTS OF SOUTHERN CA...

...20z Update...
Critical conditions are expected to be ongoing at the start of the
period with offshore gusts of 25-50 mph through the terrain-favored
corridors of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. Winds should begin to
weaken midday and into the evening before stronger gusts reemerge
into early D3/Monday. Continued poor RH recoveries and downslope
warming will keep the air mass dry with RH below 25%. Critical
fire-weather concerns are likely, especially near active fires.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0147 AM CST Sat Jan 11 2025/

...Synopsis...
Broad mid-level troughing will persist across the western U.S.
through tomorrow (Sunday), which will continue to reinforce a
surface pressure gradient with dry offshore flow over southern
California. Continuing from Day 1, 20+ mph sustained offshore wind
speeds and 15-25 percent RH should be co*mon in the higher terrain
areas surrounding Los Angeles, necessitating the continuance of
Elevated and Critical highlights given dry fuels.
