.DISCUSSION...

...Today & Monday...
Highs are expected to be in the high 70s to low 80s across the
Valley, and in the 60s to mid 70s in the foothills. Gusty north to
east winds peak today in the Valley, with gusts up to 40 to 50
mph through the evening. Valley winds will gradually decrease
overnight before picking up slightly again on Monday; however,
wind speeds on Monday will generally be lower than today, up to 35
mph in the Valley through Monday evening. Delta wind speeds will
continue to gust up to 50 mph through Monday evening. A Wind
Advisory for portions of the Valley and Delta remains in place
until 8pm tonight. Additionally, with daytime humidities falling
into the single digits and teens throughout the Valley, and poor
overnight recoveries, a Red Flag Warning remains in place for
elevations below 1000 ft through 8pm Monday.

...Tuesday to Saturday...
A warming trend continues on Tuesday and through the late week,
with increasing areal coverage of Moderate HeatRisk in the Valley
and foothills. Thursday also sees 70 to 90% chance of triple digit
temperatures, primarily in the central and southern Sacramento
Valley east of I-5. Daytime relative humidities will also remain
in the single digit to teen range through at least the end of the
week. This means that even with light winds in the forecast for
the remainder of the week, some elevated fire weather risk will
remain. It therefore remains important to practice fire safety
this week! There is some indication that ridging will flatten out
and therefore that temperatures will cool slightly over the
weekend, but there is still some uncertainty in the forecast. Make
sure to stay up to date at weather.gov/sacramento.

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions are expected over the next 24 hours. Northerly
winds 20-30 kts with gusts 30-40 kts for the Valley and Delta
through tonight. Then, northerly wind gusts up to 15-30 kts in the
Valley and Delta until 00z Tuesday. Northeast to east winds 20-35
kts with gusts up to 35-50 kts over the Sierra through tonight,
then gusts up to 20-35 kts through mid-day Monday.
