.DISCUSSION...
Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms expected through
Friday afternoon. As a result, elevated to critical fire weather
conditions are anticipated through Friday, especially in Shasta
County, due to isolated dry thunderstorms, abundant lightning
outside the main precipitation core in wet thunderstorms, and
gusty outflow winds. Breezy onshore and terrain driven winds
persist, with cooler temperatures and improving humidity recovery
into the weekend. Warming and drying weather expected for next
week.
