While the Santa Ana winds are expected to pick back up, a light rain system is predicted for the weekend, bringing some relief from the extreme fire weather conditions plaguing Southern California. Temperatures will fluctuate significantly, with a possible 30-degree swing.
The strong Santa Ana winds, which have been fueling extreme fire weather conditions in Southern California , are starting to weaken. Meteorologist Bryan Lewis from the National Weather Service told LAist that while the winds are expected to decrease Tuesday, they will likely pick back up again Wednesday, potentially triggering more red flag warnings. A bit of relief is on the horizon, however.
Lewis predicts light rain showers this weekend, although most of the Los Angeles area will only receive less than half an inch of precipitation. He expressed optimism that this rainfall, while not substantial, could bring some respite from the relentless fire weather pattern. Despite the upcoming rain, temperatures are expected to rise significantly on Wednesday and Thursday before dropping noticeably with the weekend storm system. Some areas might experience a dramatic 30-degree temperature swing. The recent wildfire crisis has highlighted the importance of reliable news sources and local reporting.
