Week Ahead

Strong Winds are likely this weekend with Critical Fire Conditions possible from western Lassen County south to the Tahoe Basin due to strong northeast winds. Wind gusts over 80 mph are possible over the Sierra Crest with gusts up to 50 mph for the mid slopes and areas favored by northeast winds. Relative Humidity will be between 15 and 25% through the event and fuels remain extremely dry.

If you weren’t ready for December-like temperatures yet, we have good news! If you’re still waiting on that first fall rain/snow, well that part is the bad news. It’ll be another cold one tonight, with hard freezes across the region, but then expect a warming trend the rest of the week. No rain/snow events on the horizon, but also no major wind events once the current east winds subside Tuesday. It’ll be a great time to catch the last of the fall colors!
