NWS Sacramento: UNTIL 9 AM PDT THURSDAY FOR LOW
HUMIDITY AND GUSTY WIND
-
WIND…West to Northwest wind 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph,
locally higher in the afternoon and evening. -
HUMIDITY…Minimum daytime humidity 5 to 12 percent with poor
overnight recoveries of 20 to 35 percent.
VIIRs from 2am, 8/19/2020.
Waking up to all this red on the maps is deja vu to the fall fires in Sonoma in 2017.
Speaking of 2017, the fires northwest of Santa Rosa are well-established, doesn’t bode well with today’s forecasted NW winds.
