.DISCUSSION...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT BASIN TODAY AND TUESDAY WILL
FORCE LOCALLY STRONG OFFSHORE WINDS AT TIMES THROUGH AND BELOW
PASSES AND CANYONS. THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL OCCUR THIS
MORNING WITH HIGHEST RIDGES OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY HAVING GUSTS
LOCALLY OVER 40 MPH. WINDS WILL DECREASE SOME THIS AFTERNOON...BUT
A SECONDARY INCREASE IS EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY
MORNING. HOWEVER...THE WINDS WILL NOT BE QUITE AS STRONG...WITH A
FEW RIDGES HAVING GUSTS TO 35 MPH. THE LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITIES AND
GUSTY WINDS WILL ELEVATE FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS...THOUGH RECENT
WETTING RAINS WILL MITIGATE THE WILDFIRE RISK SLIGHTLY. THERE WILL
BE POOR NIGHTTIME RECOVERIES TONIGHT AND TUESDAY NIGHT. LIGHER WINDS
WILL OCCUR WEDNESDAY...BUT VERY LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL CONTINUE.
CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS A TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE BRINGS MORE CLOUDS AND HIGHER RELATIVE HUMIDITY...WITH A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
