Another blustery day in the thousand acre desert… A RED FLAG WARNING AND a WIND ADVISORY (so be advised… it’s gonna be windy) have been issued for today.

A 30% chance Thursday upper 90s. Mostly sunny Friday 101. 10% chance for storms on the 4th 104. 10% Sunday 105. Enjoy!

Shocker! A RED FLAG WARNING is in effect from 11:00 this morning until 7:00 tonight. The winds won’t be all that bad. WSW 10-20 mph and gusty, but it’s just so stinkin’ dry one cigarette butt out of the car and the whole place could go up. Remember. The world is not your ash tray. (of course you already knew that, it’s just me being PC) Meanwhile, temperatures will moderate somewhat. Down a couple of degrees today and right at seasonal norms tomorrow and Saturday. More wind early next week with an increase of moisture well to our east. I only mention it because it’s a good sign of things eventually to come! Eventually. Until then, take it breezy!
