The National Weather Service has issued a red flag warning for parts of the San Francisco and Monterey bay areas and the Central Coast due to high fire danger.
The red flag warning will be in effect from 5 p.m. tonight to 5 p.m. Monday in the North Bay mountains, the East Bay hills, the Diablo Range and the Santa Cruz Mountains.
Meteorologists said Saturday that there is a slight chance for thunderstorms in the region, and that cloud-to-ground lightning may spark new wildfires.
In addition to extreme temperature conditions, the forecast also calls for gusty outflow winds and increased risk of new wildfire starts and rapid spread.

“… extreme temperature conditions…”?

You sound like one of those people,who doesn’t believe in the man-bear-pig
It’s time to get super serious!
We had about 4 inches of rain last night. More ‘significant weather’ expected this evening. Winds could reach 35-40 mph. But the chance of wildfires had been downgraded to non-existent.
Nothing to see here folks don’t be alarmed from some weather people’s way of trying to get people excited..
