Fire Weather Alert for North Bay mountains Sunday-Monday

Posted on July 15, 2021 by Sonoma Valley Sun

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a Fire Weather Alert for higher elevations in the North Bay Mountains, which is in effect from 5:00 PM Sunday, July 18th through Monday, July 19th at 5 p.m..

Friday’s alert applies to the East Bay Hills, the Diablo Range and the Santa Cruz Mountains.

NWS reports that there is a slight chance of isolated to scattered dry thunderstorms Sunday afternoon through Monday morning, and gusty and erratic winds are possible. Given the dry fuels over the higher elevations, any cloud-to-ground lightning strikes have the potential of starting new wildfires.
