...Synopsis...
At least Elevated fire-weather conditions are forecast for portions
of Southern California on Saturday as an upper-level ridge
contributes to dry and breezy easterly off-shore flow. Relative
humidity minimums of 15-20% and winds of 10-15 MPH (potentially
gusting higher in the vicinity of the San Diego foothills) should
overlap with modestly dry fuels during the afternoon.
