A RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM PDT SATURDAY. 

ON FRIDAY A SECONDARY SYSTEM WILL PASS OVER THE REGION WITH GUSTY
NORTH WINDS CONTINUING DURING THE DAY...ALTHOUGH THE WINDS MAY
EASE FOR A TIME. BY FRIDAY NIGHT WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN INCREASE
AS AN UPPER LEVEL JET PASSES OVER THE BAY AREA. WINDS WILL BECOME
MORE NORTHEAST IN DIRECTION ON FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING
WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 15 TO 30 MPH AND FREQUENT GUSTS TO
45 MPH. LOCAL WIND GUSTS UP TO 50 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE
NORTH AND EAST BAY HILLS. EVEN WITH COLD TEMPERATURES AND HIGHER
HUMIDITIES WINDS OF THIS MAGNITUDE WILL CREATE A POTENTIALLY
DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER SITUATION.

THE STRONG WINDS WILL PEAK SATURDAY MORNING AND THEN SLOWLY EASE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO DECREASE SATURDAY
NIGHT AND SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE STATE AND WARM
TEMPERATURES RETURN.

A RED FLAG WARNING MEANS THAT CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
ARE OCCURRING NOW. A COMBINATION OF STRONG WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE
HUMIDITY WILL CREATE EXPLOSIVE WIND DRIVEN FIRE POTENTIAL.
