The Bay Area is bracing for severe fire conditions due to heavy winds and low humidity, heightening the likelihood of planned electrical shutdowns across several regions.
According to meteorologist Matt Mehle, 'We're gonna see the winds start to kick in as we move into Thursday night,' indicating a significant shift in weather patterns affecting fire risks.
With humidity predicted to fall from 90% to about 30%, the National Weather Service issued a red flag warning effective Thursday night through Saturday evening.
Isolated wind gusts could reach up to 65 mph, creating conditions that prompted PG&E to consider shutting down power in multiple counties across the Bay Area.
