1229 PM PDT SUN JUN 9 2013

...WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WITH DRY LIGHTNING AND GUSTY
WINDS COULD RESULT IN CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER FOR THIS EVENING
THROUGH EARLY MONDAY MORNING...

.STRONG UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY GIVE WAY TO MID
AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY TRACKING NORTHWARD
ACROSS CALIFORNIA LATER TODAY...WHICH MAY HELP TO SPARK
THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT. WHILE LATEST COMPUTER MODEL PROJECTIONS ARE
LEANING TOWARD LESS THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...FUELS ARE AT
UNUSUALLY DRY LEVELS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. WHILE LIVE FUELS ARE
NOT COMPLETELY CURED PARTICULARLY ABOVE 3000 FEET AND ON NORTH-
FACING SLOPES... ENOUGH DRY FUELS WILL EXIST SO THAT ANY
THUNDERSTORMS MAY RESULT IN FIRE STARTS. THE HIGHEST RISK OF
WIDELY SCATTERED DRY THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE ACROSS THE YOLLA BOLLY
MOUNTAINS TONIGHT. IT IS DOUBTFUL MUCH IF ANY THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY MAKES IT NORTH OF THE TRINITY RIVER. ANY THUNDERSTORMS
SHOULD DISSIPATE OR TRACK OUT OF THE AREA EARLY MONDAY MORNING.
