There is a moderate risk for locally damaging winds over the windiest areas. Considering the extremely dry state of the fuels, recent fire behavior, and the strength of the winds, this is a particularly dangerous situation. There is a high risk for large fires, rapid fire spread, and long range spotting. Key changes included focusing the PDS to Wednesday 3am to 3pm, removing the San Gabriel Valley, adding the northern Ventura Mountains, and extending the Santa Susana Mountains, western San Gabriel Mountains, and I-5 Corridor through 3pm Thursday. * WINDS...Periods of east winds 15 to 25 mph with gusts to 40 mph, strongest on Wednesday. * RELATIVE HUMIDITY...Daytime humidities of 10 to 20 percent common with minimal improvement at night. * IMPACTS...If fire ignition occurs, conditions are favorable for very rapid fire spread and extreme fire behavior, including long range spotting, which would threaten life and property.
