11/7/24

Not a great Thursday morning for those to the south affected by the 🔥 fire.

I was driving through last night on route 1 at 7pm and the hills were lite up with red from fire and firetrucks. The threat we had on Wednesday sadly comes to attrition with a spark and high Santa Ana winds. They have one more day before the winds start to back off and likely by later this afternoon. 

Today it starting out quite chilly with 43 degrees at my house and it will warm to 74.

Winds continue to the south with 60 mile an hour gusts. Here fairly calm, but in wind sheltered areas like Santa’s Ynez it is cold at 35 degrees. No A/C needed this morning.

Weather after today gets better for the fire danger, but will remain chilly at night and cooler days in the upper 60s.

As we get further  into the weekend there will be a series of weak systems that should bring cooler weather and north winds. Rain chances are possible early next week, but at this point it does not seem like much. As always we will follow the weather and have more update. 

You will need a jacket or sweatshirt to start the day
