Strong winds, low humidity levels, and very receptive fuels will combine Friday through Sunday, resulting in a very high fire danger for much of the region, particularly across higher terrain areas. Red Flag Warnings has been issued and any ongoing fires or new starts could grow out of control.
Breezy to windy conditions will develop tomorrow and last through the weekend. Strongest gusts will be focused over the AZ high terrain, along with the Colorado River and Imperial Valleys. Wind Advisories have been posted for western portions of our areas for the weekend.
Drier and relatively cooler will overspread the region through the end of the work week and into the weekend. Breezy to locally windy conditions will combine with that dry to produce widespread high fire danger through the next few days.
Temperatures will gradually increase this week, peaking on Thursday at 6-10° above normal. This will result in widespread Moderate HeatRisk with areas of Major HeatRisk developing for the end of the workweek. Never underestimate the heat, and make plans accordingly. Remember to drink plenty of water and take breaks in air conditioning.
