URGENT - FIRE WEATHER MESSAGE...CORRECTED
National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
202 PM PDT Fri Oct 20 2017

...Critical Fire Weather Conditions likely Saturday through
Tuesday for portions of Southwest California due to gusty
north to northeast winds...low humidities...and hot
temperatures...

.Gusty northwest to north winds will continue across much of 
Southwest California this afternoon into tonight following the 
passage of an upper level trough. While there will be elevated 
fire danger due to these strong winds, humidities are not 
expected to be sufficiently low to reach critical conditions. 
However, by early Saturday morning, gusty northerly winds combined
with lowering humidities will likely bring critical fire weather 
conditions to the mountains...especially across the Santa Ynez 
range and Interstate 5 corridor. 

As the flow turns more northeast Sunday through Tuesday, there
will be a significant warming and drying trend across all of
Southwest California, with the potential for critical fire
weather conditions extending into the valleys and coastal areas
of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The most critical fire 
weather conditions are expected Monday through Tuesday, when 
there will be a combination of Santa Ana winds gusting to between 
40 and 50 mph, record breaking triple digit heat, humidities 
lowering into the single digits, and very dry fuels. In addition, 
very warm and dry conditions during the overnight hours in the 
mountains, foothills, and wind prone areas will add to this fire 
weather threat during this long duration of dangerous fire weather
conditions. If fire ignition occurs, there will be the potential
for very rapid spread of wildfire with long range spotting and 
extreme fire behavior that could lead to a threat to life and 
property.

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM PDT SUNDAY UNTIL 6 PM PDT TUESDAY
FOR REMAINING COASTAL AND VALLEY AREAS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES
DUE TO GUSTY NORTHEAST WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITIES...

.Gusty north to northeast winds and a drying trend will continue
to bring critical fire weather conditions to the mountains and 
Santa Clarita Valley this afternoon through tonight. 
From Sunday through Tuesday, gusty Santa Ana winds combined with 
hot and very dry conditions will bring an extended period of 
critical fire weather conditions to much of Los Angeles and 
Ventura counties. The most critical fire weather conditions are 
expected Monday through Tuesday, when there will be increasing 
coverage and intensity of Santa Ana winds, record breaking triple 
digit heat, humidities lowering into the single digits, and very 
dry fuels. The strongest winds are expected to occur on Tuesday 
when peak gusts between 45 and 60 mph are expected across wind 
prone passes and canyons of Los Angeles and Ventura counties.

Very warm and dry conditions the overnight hours in the mountains,
foothills, and wind prone areas will add to the fire weather threat.
The duration, strength, and widespread nature of this Santa Ana 
wind event combined with extreme heat will bring dangerous fire 
weather conditions to Southwest California Sunday through Tuesday.
If fire ignition occurs, there will be the potential for very 
rapid spread of wildfire with long range spotting and extreme fire
behavior that could lead to a threat to life and property.

...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE CONDITIONS FOR PORTIONS OF
SAN LUIS OBISPO AND SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES THROUGH TUESDAY DUE
TO GUSTY NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS...HOT TEMPERATURES...AND
LOW HUMIDITIES...

.From today through at least Tuesday, gusty Santa Ana winds combined with 
hot and very dry conditions will bring an extended period of critical fire
weather conditions to much of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The most
critical fire weather conditions are expected Monday through Tuesday, when
there will be increasing coverage and intensity of Santa Ana winds,
record breaking triple digit heat, humidities lowering into the single
digits, and very  dry fuels. The strongest winds are expected to occur
on Tuesday when peak gusts between 45 and 60 mph are expected across the
wind areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties, increasing the potential
for downed trees and power lines. Elevated to brief critical fire weather
conditions are also expected for portions of San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara
counties (especially the Central Coast) through Tuesday due to gusty offshore
winds, hot temperatures, and low humidities. 

Very warm and dry conditions during the overnight hours in the mountains,
foothills, and wind prone areas will add to this long duration fire weather
threat. A Red Flag Warning is in effect today through Tuesday for much of Los
Angeles and Ventura counties, and may need to be extended into Wednesday as
latest model guidance shows lingering offshore winds and low humidities
into that period. The duration, strength, and widespread nature of this
Santa Ana wind event combined with the extreme heat and very dry fuels will
bring the most dangerous fire weather conditions that Southwest California has seen
in the past few years. If fire ignition occurs, there will be the potential for
very rapid spread of wildfire with long range spotting and extreme fire behavior
that could lead to a threat to life and property.

...ELEVATED TO BRIEF CRITICAL FIRE CONDITIONS FOR PORTIONS OF SAN
LUIS OBISPO AND SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES THROUGH TUESDAY DUE TO
GUSTY NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS...HIGH TEMPERATURES...AND LOW 
HUMIDITIES...

.From today through Wednesday, gusty Santa Ana winds
combined with hot and very dry conditions will bring an extended
period of critical fire weather conditions to much of Los Angeles
and Ventura counties. The most critical fire weather conditions
are expected Monday through Tuesday, when there will be
increasing coverage and intensity of Santa Ana winds, record
breaking triple digit heat, humidities lowering into the single
digits, and very  dry fuels. The strongest winds are expected to
occur on Tuesday when peak gusts between 45 and 60 mph are
expected across the wind-prone areas of Los Angeles and Ventura 
counties, increasing the potential for downed trees and power 
lines. Moderate offshore winds and low humidities are now expected
to continue Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, prompting the 
extension of the Red Flag Warning through Wednesday. Elevated to 
brief critical fire weather conditions are also expected for 
portions of San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties (especially
the Central Coast) through Tuesday due to gusty offshore winds, 
high temperatures, and low humidities.

Very warm and dry conditions during the overnight hours in the
mountains, foothills, and wind prone areas will add to this long
duration fire weather threat. The duration, strength, and widespread
nature of this Santa Ana wind event combined with the extreme heat and
very dry fuels will bring the most dangerous fire weather
conditions that Southwest California has seen in the past few
years. If fire ignition occurs, there will be the potential for
very rapid spread of wildfire with long range spotting and
extreme fire behavior that could lead to a threat to life and

927 AM PDT Mon Oct 23 2017

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM PDT WEDNESDAY FOR MUCH
OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES DUE TO GUSTY SANTA ANA
WINDS AND HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS...

.A moderate to locally strong Santa Ana wind event will bring 
windy, hot and very dry conditions through Wednesday to much of 
Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. This event is especially
concerning because of the multiple day nature of it, which we have
not seen yet this season and such events have a history of large
fires. The winds will peak on Tuesday with 20 to 30 mph gusting to
50 mph common in the wind prone coastal and valley areas of Los 
Angeles and Ventura Counties, and 20 to 30 mph gusting to 60 mph 
common in the mountains. Minimum humidities of 5 to 10 percent 
will be common through Wednesday, with poor overnight recoveries. 
Widespread record breaking heat will exasperate the situation, 
with highs between 95 and 105 common and lows between 65 and 75 
common. Some windy and hilly locations may only drop into the 80s 
at night. A Red Flag Warning will remain in effect through 
Wednesday as a result. Over San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara 
Counties, similar heat and dry air is expected, but easterly winds
peaked on Sunday and should locally gust between 20 and 30 mph in
the wind prone areas. As such, elevated fire weather conditions 
exist there. 

With these prolonged weather conditions, and the very dry 
fuels/vegetation, extreme fire behavior is likely if any fire 
ignition begins...threatening life and property. The public 
should be very, very careful with any potential ignition sources 
such as welding and brush clearing equipment, as well as campfires
and cigarettes.

URGENT - FIRE WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
747 PM PDT Tue Oct 24 2017

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM PDT WEDNESDAY FOR MUCH
OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES DUE TO GUSTY SANTA ANA WINDS
AND HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS...

.A moderate to locally strong Santa Ana wind event will bring
windy, hot and very dry conditions through Wednesday to much of
Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. This event is especially 
concerning because of the multiple day nature of it, which we have
not seen yet this season and such events have a history of large 
fires.

With these prolonged weather conditions, and the very dry
fuels/vegetation, extreme fire behavior is likely if any fire
ignition begins...threatening life and property. The public
should be very, very careful with any potential ignition sources
such as welding and brush clearing equipment, as well as
campfires and cigarettes.

LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES DUE TO LOW HUMIDITIES, RECORD-
BREAKING TEMPERATURES AND LOCALLY GUSTY SANTA ANA WINDS...

.Santa Ana winds will continue to weaken today as pressure
gradients relax, however, record-breaking temperatures well into
the 90s and lower 100s along with very dry air will persist 
today. Winds will also reverse to onshore by afternoon near the 
coastal zones and could create issues with existing fires or 
containment efforts in Ventura and Los Angeles Counties due to 
shifting winds. There will be a slight improvement in humidity 
recovery tonight and 5-12 degrees of cooling is expected for 
Thursday.

Elevated fire weather conditions will return to Los Angeles and
Ventura Counties on Friday and Saturday when a weak Santa Ana
redevelops, bringing warming and drying to the region once again.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this red flag warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Los Angeles, CA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this red flag warning went out at Oct 20, 1:48 PM PDT, 14 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 20, 1:48 PM PDT, 14 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
148 PM PDT Fri Oct 20 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Widespread gusty northwest winds with many areas under wind
advisories this evening. Northerly, offshore wind and above
normal pressure will develop by Sunday bringing elevated fire
danger. Very hot temperatures are expected early next week in a
Santa Ana event. Record heat is possible for Monday and Tuesday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TDY-MON)

Weak cold front and upper level trough moved across the forecast
area today. Light rain showers brought some measurable rain to the
mountains and the most cloud cover, but that is just about to end
as drier air is building over the region. Temperatures were a
good 5-10 degrees cooler than yesterday and as much as 20 degrees
cooler in the mountains. The main impact through this evening is
the gusty west to northwest winds felt across the Antelope Valley,
mountains, and coastal areas. Onshore pressure gradients were
quickly building over 7 mb this afternoon and should peak shortly,
but this has resulted in gusts to 40 mph near Zuma Beach, 25-35
mph along the Ventura Coast, and 40-50 mph across the AV.
Visibilities have been reduced to feet in some areas of the AV due
to blowing dust and is a danger to travelers along highways 14 and
138 until winds decrease later this evening.

Expect wind gusts to remain in advisory levels across many coastal
areas and the AV this evening. However, winds will turn more
northerly across the mountains and Santa Barbara south coast so we
will be extending the advisories into Saturday morning and
afternoon in these areas. Also expect winds to continue to turn
and be from the northeast by daybreak across eastern Ventura and
western Los Angeles Counties in a more traditional Santa Ana
pattern. A few wind advisories may need to be reissued for valleys
and coasts for these winds tomorrow morning. Offshore gradients
only reach about 3 mb but that will be about a 10 mb swing from
onshore to offshore.

Warming and drying starts to build in earnest on Saturday.
Temperatures should push to near 80 degrees for warmer coastal
areas and well into the 80s for valleys in the Santa Ana pattern
and as high pressure builds across the west coast. The Santa Ana
winds will become a little stronger Saturday night for eastern
Ventura and western Los Angeles Counties as offshore pressure
gradients reach 5-6 mb between LAX-DAG. Will need to decide in
future shifts whether winds will be strong enough to warrant
additional advisories in these areas Saturday night into Sunday.

Similar trends are expected for Sunday and Monday. The offshore
gradients could reach 7 mb by Monday morning and by then
temperatures will be nearing record territory with highs well into
the 90s at the coasts and over the century mark for some valleys.
Even the nighttime low temperatures will be very warm in the 70s
for foothill communities. An excessive heat watch will remain in
effect for many areas on Monday. This will be an extended Santa
Ana event with significant heat for this time of the year.
Critical fire weather conditions are anticipated into next week
with details below.

.LONG TERM...(TUE-FRI)

The heat wave will likely peak on Tuesday as Santa Ana winds kick
off another warm start and continue to bring dry, hot air down to
the valleys and coasts. The excessive heat watch extends through
Tuesday and fire weather conditions will remain critical. The only
good news here is that the high pressure ridge slowly begins to
break down along the west coast on Tuesday.

Some moderation in temperatures will occur on Wednesday as
heights aloft fall about 60dm and we should start to see winds
reverse back onshore by late morning and early afternoon. Highs
will likely be 10 degrees cooler for coasts and 5 degrees cooler
or so for valleys on Wednesday. This could still be a critical
fire weather day due to reversing wind direction and continued
very dry conditions. Overall though this will be the break in the
October heat wave that we will be glad to see.

A rather cold and deep upper level trough drops across the Rocky
Mountain front range and the upper Midwest later next week. We
will continue to cool slightly on Thursday, however, another high
pressure ridge will pop up over the eastern Pacific Ocean and
start to shift toward California on Friday. Therefore the cool
down could be short-lived and temperatures may begin to trend
upward by Friday and especially into next weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...20/1825Z...

At 1730Z, there was a deep moisture layer to 4500 feet.

Moderate to high confidence in 18Z TAFs. Light to occasionally
moderate LLWS possible at at all terminals beginning between 00Z
and 06Z and lasting for some terminals through the end of the TAF
period. Except for moderate to occasionally strong LLWS expected
at KBUR, KSBA, KSBP, and KSMX.

KLAX...Moderate confidence in 18Z TAF. There is a 20 percent
chance of north winds gusting to 20 kt between 03Z and 08Z with
light to occasionally moderate LLWS likely during this time. There
is a 30 percent chance of east winds of 10 kt sometime between
09Z and 15Z.

KBUR...Moderate confidence in 18Z TAF. Occasional north wind
gusts to 15 kt is possible between 00Z and 10Z. East winds up to
10 kt are possible after 10Z.

&&

.MARINE...20/915 AM...

For the Outer Waters, high confidence in current forecast. Small
Craft Advisory (SCA) level winds this morning will increase to
Gale force levels this afternoon through tonight. The winds will
diminish on Saturday, but remain at SCA levels through Monday.

For the Inner Waters, moderate confidence in the current
forecast. For the waters north of Point Sal, winds are expected to
increase to Gale force levels this afternoon through tonight. On
Saturday, the winds will diminish, but SCA level winds are
anticipated through Sunday. For the waters south of Point
Conception, SCA level winds are expected through tonight with the
strongest winds across western sections and a 30% chance of Gale
force gusts across the western Santa Barbara Channel. From Sunday
night through Tuesday, there is a 50% chance of SCA level
northeasterly winds nearshore from Ventura southward.

A large long-period NW swell will move into our waters Friday and
persist through the weekend. Seas up to 15 feet are likely across
the outer and northern waters. There will likely be dangerous
breaking waves on the Central Coast through the weekend with
dangerous conditions in/near harbors. South of Point
Conception...the westerly swell will contribute to continued
hazardous conditions at the beaches through this weekend.

&&

.BEACHES...20/1245 PM...

A large swell will continue to build across the coastal waters
through this evening. As a result, a High Surf Advisory continues
for the Central Coast through Sunday morning. Surf will quickly
rise to around 10 to 12 feet initially this morning. Surf is
expected to continue increase to between 14 and 20 feet through
early Saturday. Surf will then begin to lower through Saturday
afternoon into Sunday morning, but remain above 10 feet. Some
impacts from these large and powerful waves and strong currents
would be the risk of ocean drowning. Also sneaker waves can
suddenly overrun previously dry beaches and jetties. With surf
approaching 20 feet along some northwest facing beaches, some low
lying beach parking lots, harbor walkways and campgrounds could
see local coastal flooding during the peak of the highest surf.

South of Point Conception...the large northwest swell forecast to
bring very large surf to the Central Coast should filter some of
the energy into the Southern California Bight allowing for higher
surf potential by this weekend. Confidence is high with respect to
elevated surf (3 to 6 feet with local sets to 8 feet) and
dangerous rip currents. So, the Beach Hazards statement continues
through Sunday afternoon.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...20/1015 AM.

A weakening cold front will bring isolated showers and drizzle to
portions of Southwest California this morning. The main impact
will be increasing northwest to north winds behind the front which
will bring elevated fire danger to many areas today through
tonight. The strongest winds today through tonight will be focused
across the mountains, Antelope Valley, Central Coast, and Santa
Barbara County south coast where gusts between 40 and 55 mph will
be common. Humidites are not expected to be sufficiently low
during this time to warrant any Red Flag Warnings, however a
drying trend will beginning to occur across downslope portions of
the mountains overnight.

Northerly flow on Saturday and Saturday night is expected to
bring a warming and drying trend along with elevated fire danger
to the region. The strongest winds during this period will remain
focused across the mountains, especially the Interstate 5 corridor
and Santa Ynez mountains where gusts between 40 and 50 mph can be
expected. A Fire Weather Watch is in effect for the mountains
beginning Saturday morning and will likely be converted to a Red
Flag Warning later today.

From Sunday through Tuesday, there is the potential for a
prolonged duration of gusty Santa Ana winds with hot and very dry
conditions. The strongest Santa Ana winds during this period is
expected to be Monday through Tuesday when gusts between 40 and 50
mph will be possible across wind prone passes and canyons of Los
Angeles and Ventura counties. Record breaking triple digit heat
and humidities lowering into the single digits and lower teens
will be possible during this time. In addition, very warm and dry
conditions during the overnight hours in the mountains, foothills,
and wind prone areas will add to this fire weather threat during
this long duration of dangerous fire weather conditions. A Fire
Weather Watch is in effect for all mountain and valley areas of
Los Angeles and Ventura counties Sunday through Tuesday, and may
need to be expanded into coastal areas as we draw closer to the
event.
