Good Saturday morning, 

Lots of clear skies out there today. As a matter of fact, we are looking at the same conditions through next week. 

The story is once again about the wind. A system to the north is pushing into the Great Basin and this will create wind once again.

Happy Friday, 

Windy Thursday night sparked one fire. It made for a rough commute to santa Ynez and north homes.

I watch the trail of headlights and break lights climbing the pass from my house. I am glad I was watching and not in it. 

Winds should die down today and through Saturday, but Saturday night they are back for another round into Sunday morning.

Good Thursday morning, 

Another week flying by. Speaking of flying, the start of the wind event will begin today and last throughout the weekend.

Winds will not be too crazy, but mountain areas will reach gusts of 50 miles an hour.

Good Wednesday morning, 

Today will be a transition day. Overall a nice day, with temps a few degrees above normal.

Tonight some high clouds will pass over us as a low pressure front washes over us. This will bring some wind to mainly gaviota and north Goleta.

Weather should be pleasant at the Bowl for Jimmy Buffett.

Thursday and through the weekend, it is all about wind.

Winds will be northwest and northeast at different times. Looks like Montecito hill will have the biggest target on there backs.

Good Tuesday morning,

There is not a lot to say about the weather this week, we will have warming the next 2 days, then cooling the next 2. The weekend looks to be nice. 

There will be some winds at times, sundowner and Santa Ana, but nothing that will be like last weeks event. 

Wednesday night and Thursday we will see some high clouds as a weak system to the north washes over us.

Happy Columbus Day, 

Not sure who really celebrates this holiday, but for those who have the day off good for you. 

Not I. It will be a perfect working day. Temps will rise into the low 70s keeping everyone cooler today. 

Tuesday, high pressure ramps up providing a warm up through Wednesday. Maybe a few weak sundowner winds Tuesday evening, but on the weaker side.

Good Sunday morning,

If you look outside right now to the west, you will see the full moon setting. 

Since the wind to the south is gone, they can recover from the mess in the yards and decks. The good news is the fires were minimal. 

Today will be sunny and cooler. Highs in the low 70s along the coast and low 80s inland.

Good Friday morning for some, if the wind is not part of your morning coffee.

Here is SB, it is calm and no real wind to speak of.

If you roll 40 miles to the south it is a whole other story. There

will be one more day of high winds at Ventura and south. You can see the red on the map.

Good Thursday morning, 

Are you ready for the wind. This is a northeast wind event. SB and Ojai will not be affected, but if you live in Ventura to Santa Monica you are feeling the winds already. 

Winds starting to pick up around 2am in Ventura south. This will blow the marine layer away and into SB. Looks like SB will see some fog until late morning.
