Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1254 AM CST Mon Nov 18 2024

Valid 181200Z - 191200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
While fire weather concerns will generally be minimal today, there
will be some potential for locally elevated conditions along the
Santa Barbara Coast. The upper-level trough will progress along the
California coast before shifting eastward. At least for some portion
of the day this will place stronger mid-level winds with some
co*ponent across the western Transverse Ranges. Coupled with
low-level surface ridging north of the terrain, downslope winds will
increase during part of the afternoon. RH reductions to sufficiently
dry levels are the primary uncertainty. Values near 20-25% appear
possible at least briefly in the lee of the terrain. Elsewhere in
southern California, offshore winds will intensify towards Tuesday
morning, though RH will remain too high for any appreciable fire
weather threat.
