#SantaBarbaraCounty#airquality forecast is Green/Good for next few days. Right now, we don't expect smoke impacts from those fires. Check air quality conditions on our website & EPA Fire & Smoke map—links in bio. We're thinking of those in the LA area dealing with these fires.
Winds are generally on lighter side currently, but are expected to pick up late tonight and last into the afternoon on Wednesday. #CAwx
Here are some of the gusts currently observed across the region⤵️
Dangerous fire weather conditions for southern California as Critical to Extremely Critical fire-weather conditions will continue across parts of southern California today (Tuesday, Jan 14) through Wednesday (Jan 15).
Heads up! Strong, locally damaging, NE/E winds will affect West LA Co. & much of Ventura Co thru Wednesday. Critical fire weather is expected, so PLEASE have multiple ways of getting notifications in case of new fires & prepare ahead of time. #venturacounty#LA#Cawx#Socal
Dangerous fire-weather conditions are expected across southern CA tomorrow through Thursday. Santa Ana winds with very low humidity may support dangerous fire-weather potential. See https://t.co/XSik9k2Y2s and your local NWS office for specific details.
A major offshore wind & fire weather event will develop this week across much of Southern California. Essentially no rain has fallen so far this season in SoCal, and a high-end "atmospheric blowdryer" wind event will greatly increase wildfire risk by Tue/Wed. #CAwx#CAfire [1/3]
#RedFlag Warnings for LA and Ventura Counties continue until 6pm today for coasts and valleys, and until 11am Friday for the mountains. Use caution with any source of ignition and follow the instructions of emergency officials! #CAwx
The @NWSLosAngeles has now issued a "particularly dangerous situation" (PDS) Red Flag Warning for portions of SoCal late today-Fri. This is an elevated tier of extreme fire weather/wildfire risk conditions that occurs only rarely. #CAwx#CAfire
