If you're heading the polls when they open at 7am, bring a jacket. It's going to be a chilly start to election day. Tuesday will be the break between two Santa Ana wind events this week.
Daytime highs will be running slightly warmer on Tuesday, but still a little below normal.
Another round of Santa Ana winds arrives on Wednesday morning. The dry, offshore winds will build throughout the day and then peak Wednesday evening through Thursday morning. San Diego's mountains and some inland valley locations could see gusts of close to 50mph. Relative humidity will get down below 15% in some places. And fuel moisture levels are critically low, despite a little rain last weekend. All of those factors will combine for severe fire danger. A FIRE WEATHER WARNING will be in effect for the mountains, and inland valleys through 1pm Thursday.
