There is high confidence for a widespread damaging wind and extreme fire weather event on Friday. This will not be like the past few windy days, but rather Friday has the potential for widespread wind gusts of 60 to 80 mph that will be capable of knocking down large tree limbs, utility poles and other structures while threatening to topple high profile vehicles! The very dry conditions and low humidity will also create extreme fire behavior and rapid growth with any ongoing wildfires.
Please make the necessary accommodations for power-outages. Most important no outside burning, please wait to burn your ditches or brush.
