Windy to gusty conditions will continue over our mountains and desert region today. As of 4 a.m., winds were gusting around 20-30 mph over Campo and Pine Valley.
Throughout the morning, easterly winds will develop over our higher elevations—Pine Valley, Julian, Warner Springs, and Campo. This will drive humidity levels down across the mountains and valleys to around 15-20%, elevating our fire weather concern throughout the afternoon.
The strongest and more dangerous Santa Ana winds will affect our neighbors to the north, where High Wind Warnings and Fire Weather Warnings are in effect. Currently, there are no watches or warnings for San Diego County.
At the coast, rip current risk will be moderate today and wave heights will generally be from 2-4 ft.
