Advisory

Red Flag Warning in Effect until 03:00PM Wednesday

The National Weather Service in San Francisco has issued a Red Flag Warning for parts of Napa County in the North Bay Hills for gusty offshore winds and low humidity, which is in effect from 11 PM this evening to 3 PM PDT Wednesday .
 From the National Weather Service:

  • TIMING...11 PM Tuesday through 3 PM Wednesday.
  • WINDS...North to northeast winds 10 to 25 mph with gusts up to 45 mph, locally up to 55 mph in the highest peaks.
  • RELATIVE HUMIDITY...Minimum humidity of 10 to 15 percent expected Wednesday.
  • IMPACTS...Any fire starts would likely see rapid spread due to dry fuels, low humidity and gusty winds.
  • AFFECTED AREAS: NORTH BAY MOUNTAINS ... EAST BAY HILLS AND THE DIABLO RANGE
A Red Flag Warning is issued by the National Weather Service when low humidity, warm temperatures, dry fuels, and strong winds could combine to produce an increased risk of fire danger. During a Red Flag Warning you should always follow the instructions of your local fire department and be prepared to take action if a fire develops in your area.  Find tips on packing a go-bag and other emergency preparedness tips here at ReadyNapaCounty.org 

Napa County and its incorporated municipalities have established standardized evacuation zones for the County.  Evacuation zones are boundary specific areas identified by the Napa County Sheriff’s Office that are used during emergencies to notify the public of imminent threat or danger. In the past, evacuation zones were different for each incident; now your evacuation zone will remain mostly the same and you can learn your zone for home and work and be ready to go when an alert requesting your zone evacuate is issued.
