RED FLAG WARNING TODAY FOR HIGH WINDS ALONG WITH LOW HUMIDITIES FROM NOON TILL 8:00PM
A strong cold front will bring gusty winds today with hazardous fire
weather and lake conditions. Showers and isolated thunderstorms are
possible east of the Reno-Tahoe region. Much cooler temperatures are
expected Thursday with brisk winds, light rain showers and very
light snow possible in the Sierra. Dry weather returns Friday with a
warming trend through the weekend.
Main concern for this afternoon is the combination of critically dry
fuels and wind gusts over 40 mph. Latest simulations suggest peak
gusts could exceed 55 mph in wind prone locations along the Sierra
Front.
