#SantaAnaWinds
The #SantaAnaWinds helped to spread the #CedarFire, which broke out on #ThisDayInHistory in 2003. Still the third-largest #wildfire in #California history, the highly destructive #SanDiegoCounty conflagration consumed 250,000 acres, destroyed 2200 homes, and killed 15 people.

Last week, the #SantaAnaWinds swept wildfire across Southern California. The Bay Area has its own version: #DiabloWinds bring warm, dry air from the Central Valley every fall, raising #wildfire risk. This year, they have already triggered red flag warnings and safety power shutoffs.

Update: There is a rapidly emerging fire weather threat in parts of SoCal Thu-Fri in places that have not seen significant recent precip (esp. western LA metro). A warm Santa Ana event will bring strong, gusty winds even to lower elevs, but vegetation moisture highly variable.
