here's why my biggest concern is tonight. 7:00 this morning, our winds are fastest up in the sacramento valley. as we head towards noon, you can see them try to push into the north bay. but it's not really until 8:00 tonight, and then peaking at 3:00 tomorrow morning. that's when we'll have the fastest winds. heading through the morning commute, it will be windy everywhere. by noon, the strongest winds up in the north bay. by 3:00, the wind event is over. by 5:00, the fire danger is over. friday and saturday, warmer than average. comfortable sunday, monday, tuesday. >> the biggest question is are you ready for a power outage? >> next, hmm.

they take all the hot air from the sacramento valley in the north the valley and they blow it across the hills and out to the ocean. this is that warmer drier wind the winds that pg e we're worried about and at the gusts as are blowing across the gusts here of these mountains. they're clocking speeds of anywhere from 3040 50 fact we heard somebody this morning who was up on those hills and he thought they're bought about 75 miles per hour still waiting for official numbers from the national weather service but it's those strong winds are fueling the fast spread of this fire don't forget it broke out at 9 30 last night and has grown out over 10,000 acres in size and how far along are firefighters and containing it. it's 0% contained right now and that's why they're awfully worried if there is one bit of good news out of all of this it's that the winds currently are blowing those flames. more do west and north which is actually blowing it away from the more populated communities right here along one oh 1 one 28 we'll continue following the story here, here's some more video as we go ag

marine you've got snow we've got napa counties seeing the areas shaded in red all the way in the sacramento valley as well see some stronger gusty winds maybe these gust blowing 25 maybe 35 miles per hour is going to be kind of a quick event just overnight late saturday night really into sunday morning and then things begin to change once again, but. these in the forecast the winds you're going to see the utter more normally as we head throughout the night tonight. and it's tomorrow, i'm not a bad start to the day in fact pretty calm around a good part of the bay area but you start to see some northeasterly winds begin to develop in calistoga also toward atlas peak and then watch you start see the color begin to move in there you go, we look at some of those winds maybe a 20 maybe 30 plus miles per hour may be some gust high as 35 across some of the peaks mainly in the north bay calm down in most of of the other places around the bay area and certainly some warm temperatures too along with that too but we could see a return of fire conditions developing later on next week as well guys back to you.

meteorology will track the first phase which occurred today with north winds going down the sacramento valley as well as adjacent to rain on either side of the valley. g hitting gusts of 50 miles per hour. one thing i like to say about these events is that these events historically are the events that cause the most destructive wildfires in california history. we are seeing some of the same conditions that will develop in this event we have seen in previous offshore diablo and santa anna wind events. it is a serious situation . meteorology continues to coordinate with our agency partners every day we are joining and in our agency call with the national weather service. the northern operations predictive services and essentially the meteorologist and forecast agencies are saying this is a high risk event. if you do not know they're national weather service has issued widespread red flag warnings across northern california and also the tehachapi mountains as well as southern california. what i am showing on the screen is that our predictive services and northern operations has this as a high ri

you can see the smoke moving into the sacramento valley, out through the delta. this is 11:00 tonight. so certainly some issues in the north bay, but elsewhere air quality is moderate. here we are tuesday in the afternoon, this is when we get our wind shift. looking at more northeasterly winds. look what happens to the smoke. it's being pushed more off the coast. the winds out of the north and east. the good news is they'll dial back. we're in the 50s. cool start with not a lot of moisture in the area. we'll see chilly overnight lows tonight into tuesday. the afternoons will be mild. 1:00 in the 60s. we're looking at the rest of the bay, maybe a few low 70s out there. certainly looking at a better day today. as we get into your midday tomorrow, this is what's going to happen. winds will come back. throughout the morning hours, notice the winds get really light through 2:00. looking at our next event, by midday tomorrow. sue is here. good morning. >> good morning. looking at green conditions which means good conditions overall for our monday morning commute. just

now for saturday night into early sunday morning across parts ran napa sonoma county also the sacramento valley lake county clear lake you can see there all shaded in red expecting some gusts over the mountain tops there of 25 to maybe 35 miles per hour fact live forecast model shows those winds already beginning to normally and then you'll begin see the colors move in and there they come you see the yellows and the orange is there some of the stronger winds going to begin to move in calistoga even gusting down there to 21 miles per hour but above the mountain peaks about a 1000 feet on a patch are going to see the strongest gusty winds. and of course the increased fire danger after that things begin to settle down a bit. clear skies outside right now that's way it's going to stay all night long. the winds not bad at all that you are see the northerly trend developing in those winds that that offshore flow that settling in for the weekend that big dome of high pressure now moving in overhead. it's going to bring with it lots of sunshine and boy nice temperatures, maybe even some 80's out along

the diablo range the entirety of the north bay but look at party extends all the way in the sacramento valley up in the sierra nevada as well so this going to be a big event statewide event that is now about to develop as we head into the next 24 hours watch as we talk about the winds very strong gusty winds. maybe gusts of 40 maybe 60 miles per hour gusts over the mountain tops at least in the north bay but watch what happens the humidity usually get that nice on shore breeze and well that is all going go away we're going to see that dry offshore wind developing and then as we get it or tomorrow afternoon 8% relative humidity is normal 28% in napa 6% in fairfield these are very dry mouth so dry almost desert dry and it's going to get worse than that probably dot dropping down maybe 4 maybe 5% of the fairfield the out bill only 6% in the napa valley so very dry air is about to move in that being said air quality ball so a concert tomorrow the spare the air and a season, poor quality without offshore wind just inside the bay along the coastline. monitor quality expected in the north bay, altho

the santa cruz mountains up to the east bay through the delta the north bay as well for the sacramento valley. all the way up in the sierra nevada, a wind advisory has also been issued about 1000 feet expecting strong gusty winds probably sustained 20 to 30 miles per hour across many of the peaks here and gusts of 4555 miles per hour. we just had gust of almost 60. here's a map to show you the most extreme conditions for fire weather around the bay area. you see falls right in that napa watch out you know bill you guys got to really pay attention tonight all the way up in the cloverdale very serious fire conditions continuing through tomorrow morning and then i think by late tomorrow afternoon finally things begin to ease up and with any luck maybe we get a little sea breeze along the coastline. late today, guys. >>all right lawrence more from lowers later in the newscast of course the pga power shut off really kicked in first in the north bay overnight thousands of people there have spend the entire day without power. >>now we want to go to kron four's ken wayne his been a in santa rosa. all
