Wind gusts of up to 70 mph could pick up today and into tomorrow morning in two separate wind events, which can wreak more havoc in the Los Angeles area grappling with out-of-control fires.
The area is under a fire weather watch in effect from this afternoon through much of Sunday afternoon.
"That will more than likely be upgraded to a red flag warning," Fox Weather meteorologist Cody Braud told The Post Saturday morning. "Once that happens, the winds will mainly be from the northeast at 15 to 30 miles per hour, but the gusts will be as high as 50 miles per hour."
Further up, in the San Gabriel Mountains and the Santa Monica mountains, wind gusts could range from 50 to 70 miles per hour on Saturday and Sunday.
The humidity is also expected to drop Saturday, which does not help in the battle against the blazes.
"As for today, we have another what's called a critical fire threat, which basically means that we're likely going to see relative humidity values drop 15 or 20%, which is not ideal for fighting fires because it's very dry," he said.
Monday will be "much quieter," but only for a short time until the winds ramp up again, Braud explained.
“It will be a very calm start to Monday, but as we get to the midday hours, the winds at upper elevations can start to increase back to 30, 40 miles per hour wind gusts, which would carry us into the stronger winds expected on Tuesday.”
