CLEAR, DRY, AND HOT WEATHER WILL CONTINUE FOR
INTERIOR VALLEYS THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY. A LARGE RIDGE OF 
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE REGION WILL PUSH TEMPERATURES UP 
INTO THE MID TO UPPER 90S. AT THE SAME TIME, HUMIDITY LEVELS 
DURING THE DAY WILL DROP QUITE LOW INTO THE TEENS AND 20S. THIS 
DRY AIR WILL QUICKLY DRY OUT THE BRUSH AND GRASS IN THE FORESTS, 
WHICH INCREASES THE FIRE DANGER. WINDS WILL STAY MOSTLY LIGHT AND 
FOLLOW NORMAL DAILY PATTERNS, BLOWING GENTLY UP THE MOUNTAIN 
SLOPES IN THE AFTERNOON. THE IMMEDIATE COAST WILL BE PROTECTED 
FROM THIS HEAT BY A COOL, DAMP LAYER OF OCEAN CLOUDS AND FOG, 
WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR EXCELLENT HUMIDITY RECOVERY OVERNIGHT. 
LOOKING AHEAD TO NEXT WEEK, WE ARE TRACKING A STRONGER HEATWAVE 
INLAND, ALONG WITH A SMALL CHANCE OF MOISTURE MOVING UP FROM THE 
SOUTH THAT COULD BRING A RISK OF LIGHTNING TO THE NORTHEASTERN 
MOUNTAINS.
