Parts of the SF Bay Area will get a red flag warning this weekend. Dangerous conditions could allow wildfires to spread, the National Weather Service said.
A fire weather watch for the Bay Area was upgraded to a red flag warning on Friday as confidence in the forecast is high that dangerous conditions that allow wildfires to spread easily will develop over the weekend, the National Weather Service said. The warning was split into two segments: The first includes elevations above 1,000 feet and starts at 5 a.m. Saturday, and the second covers elevations below 1,000 feet and begins at 5 p.m. Saturday. Both run until 5 p.m. Sunday.
A fire weather watch is issued up to 72 hours before dangerous fire conditions could possibly develop, while a warning is issued about 24 hours before there’s a high likelihood of conditions developing that promote wildfire spread, according to the weather service. Late summer and early fall rains have helped prevent wildfires in California in recent weeks, but the impact of the moisture is waning.
