Well through Monday, it's looking warm and dry across Southwestern California. Afternoon temperatures on Sunday and Monday are expected to top out in the 70s along the coast, but the 80s to lower 90s across the valleys and interior sections. Temperatures will be 5-10 degrees above seasonal normals. At this time, no significant heat risk issues are expected.

As the temperatures rise, breezy and dry conditions will develop acorss the area. Tonight through Sunday night, southwest to northwest winds, gusting 30-50 MPH, can be expected across the Central Coast, Santa Ynez Mountains, I-5 Corridor and the Antelope Valley. With minimum relative humidtiy dropping into the 10-25% range away from the coast, there will be an elevated fire weather risk with an enhanced potential for grass and brush fires.

For Tuesday through the rest of next week, there will be some slight cooling west of the mountains, but some warming across interior sections. An elevated risk of grass and brush fires will continue across interior sections with gusty onshore winds and continued low relative humidity.
