Potential Hot Weather, High Winds

Beginning today, we have a POTENTIAL critical fire weather situation in the making this week. From the NWS:

WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

A STRONG RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN. HIGHS WILL WARM
INTO THE 80S ACROSS MONTEREY...SAN BENITO...AND SANTA CRUZ
COUNTIES WHICH WILL CREATE THE POTENTIAL FOR RECORD BREAKING
TEMPERATURES. OTHER AREAS IN THE DISTRICT WILL WARM INTO THE MID
70S TO MID 80S. WINDS WILL ALSO BECOME OFFSHORE DURING THIS TIME
AND BE LOCALLY GUSTY WHICH WILL CREATE THE POTENTIAL FOR A
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER SITUATION.

And on another note, those of you who are Garrison Keillor fans 
can find an article today on the Obama win at Salon.com :
