nationalweatherservicelogoA “fire weather watch” has been issued by the National Weather Service for the Santa Clarita Valley and adjacent communities as strong Santa Ana winds should hit the region Saturday night into Sunday.

Although high temperatures are not expected to exceed the low 70s, a potential for wind gusts of 50 to 60 mph across the mountains, coupled with dry fuels and humidity in the low teens and possibly single digits Sunday, “will potentially bring critical fire weather conditions to much of Los Angeles and Ventura counties,” according to NWS.

Offshore winds should diminish Sunday night, but warm and dry conditions will extend an elevated fire danger into Monday.
