Critical fire weather is expected Wednesday morning through Thursday evening in the Sierras and much of Northern California, according to the state’s fire protection agency.
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire, encouraged residents Tuesday to exercise caution outdoors.
The National Weather Service issued the red-flag warning Tuesday. It includes most of Modoc County, and the Shasta-Trinity National Forest in Siskiyou County. The warning also includes a large swath of interior Northern California. A red-flag warning is issued for weather which might result in extreme fire behavior that will occur within 24 hours.The warning was prompted, in part, because isolated thunderstorms are possible Wednesday morning and isolated and scattered thunderstorms are possible in the afternoon with little or no rain.
The weather follows several days of high temperatures in the northern swath of the state, which dried out brush that could provide fuel for a wildfire, according to the weather service.this year.The state has seen a fraction of the number of acres burned by wildfires compared to last year. As of last week,late spring rains, a cooler summer and fewer extreme wind events, among other things.
