for more on the fire situation let's go to chief meteorologist rick reichmuth with the fox weather center the next number of days anywhere you see the red flag here. fire warning watches area, california, towards south dakota. windy conditions continue where you see the yellows and oranges those are winds gusting 30 30-40 miles per hour today. the worst just to the north of denver here close to the fire in the fourth colins area. temps warm again and the winds extreme for the next three da s days. it it does improve by wednesday and thursday. temps however, a big problem for us across area of the west. take a look at this picture here. the first dust storm of the season yesterday in phoenix. it is called a haboob in some places and i tell you what, strong winds with the thunderstorm did not bring any rain but this went in across the phoenix area and they are already at 97 degrees. 110 degrees today in areas places like phoenix, arizona. that heat continues to build out across the west. it going to clash with the disturbance here and to the north and a big threat today for severe weather a
