Fire weather watch for 5 Freeway north of LA for Wednesday and Thursday – increased fire danger
5 Freeway north of LA is included in a fire weather watch released by the National Weather Service on Monday at 1:13 p.m. The watch is valid from Wednesday 3 p.m. until Thursday July 16, at 9 a.m.
Expect winds to be northwest to north winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts of 45 to 55 mph, strongest in Sundowner wind prone areas of southern Santa Barbara County and relative humidity 10 to 25%.
“Strong northwest to north winds, hot temperatures, and low relative humidity will produce the potential for critical fire-weather conditions late Wednesday through early Thursday,” the NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard CA said. “If fire ignition occurs, conditions are favorable for extreme fire behavior, rapid fire growth, and long range spotting, which could threaten life and property. The hot air mass will also contribute to the potential for significant vertical plume growth.”
The full list of affected locations includes:
5 Freeway corridor near Santa Clarita
Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast
Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast
Santa Ynez Mountains Western Range
Santa Ynez Mountains Eastern Range
Santa Barbara County Interior Mountains
Southern Ventura County Mountains
Northern Ventura County Mountains
