How to resolve AdBlock issue? The agency has issued another red flag warning for parts of Northern California, including Lake and neighboring counties, from 11 a.m. Wednesday to 5 p.m. Thursday.
A red flag warning – a combination of strong winds, low humidity and warm temperatures – means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now or will shortly.
The National Weather Service said increasing north to northeast wind and low humidity will generate critical fire weather conditions again over Interior Northern California beginning on Wednesday.
Although wind is not expected to be as strong as the Sunday to Sunday night event – which whipped up devastating fires around the region – the forecast warns that more dry, offshore winds could rapidly spread current and any new wildfires.
The specific Lake County forecast predicts winds of up to 10 miles per hour in the fire area, with wind speeds into the mid-20s in southern Lake County.
The forecast also calls for daytime temperatures into the high 70s into early next week and nighttime temperatures down into the 40s.
