A Red Flag warning has been issued ahead of gusty winds, bone dry conditions and high temperatures for the local mountains and foothill regions.
The Red Flag warning will remain in effect until 9 p.m. Sunday, according to officials at the National Weather Service. A strong upper level high pressure system over the great basin is expected to bring hot and dry conditions to SoCal through Monday.
Heightened fire weather concerns will also continue through Monday, especially during the afternoon and evening hours. Gusty onshore winds, combined with low humidity levels will heighten the fire danger, officials said.
Temperatures are expected to reach 100 degrees later Sunday, the temperature by 1:45 p.m. was already at 82.
Fire Danger Intensifies as Heat Wave Approaches
Single-digit humidity parches already dry mountain areas.

I called the non-emergency # for the Glendora Police Dept. and the operator told me 'they' knew…Read More nothing about the explosion.
Then I told her I had 'just read' on Patch that a Glendora Police Officer had told a resident that it probably was an industrial fire cracker, but I 'thought' it was way too massive for that. The operator had 'nothing' more to say.

Amen to you both. I have seen several streets in Glendora that could use repair. I was recently…Read More driving in cities with much fewer resources and and smaller budgets than Glendora wondering why their roads are better than ours. Maybe we need to start with Grand and go from there....
