.DISCUSSION...
Hot and dry conditions continue through the next several days
across the region. Elevated Fire Weather Concerns for the northern
Sacramento Valley and adjacent foothills/mountains, Burney Basin,
and Sierra Foothills through Sunday. The combination of hot
temperatures, poor overnight recoveries, breezy to locally gusty
conditions, and low daytime humidity in the single digits to teens
are the primary factors. Conditions will remain breezy into Monday
as well, especially in the northern Sac Valley and Burney Basin.
