Extreme temps the last few days continue today and tomorrow, no RH recovery, winds, makes for dangerous fire conditions. Lightning strikes of 150 along the front in SoCal, and similar conditions coming into the NE portion of the state. We are not pegged to receive any lightning, but conditions are not good, so be extra vigilant right now, and report any unauthorized campfires immediately!

  • Thanks for the reminder. I'm putting a sign up outside the gallery today for visitors and campers. In NY the fire truck response time is 1+1/2 minutes. When I lived in very wet Virginia I don't think 'fire season' was in anyone's vocabulary ever. It sure has been gorgeous in our Big Sur.
