A beautiful Saturday is on the way with bright sunshine and highs in the 60s.
It will be gusty on Saturday with sustained winds of 15-25 mph with gusts over 30 mph. Because of the dry weather and gusty wind a Red Flag Warning is in effect. Any brush fires that develop may spread quickly.

Besides the dry brush on the ground the air will be very dry as well with relative humidity values below 20% in spots.
Our next chance for rain is next week with a storm coming in from the west. The early outlook is for around a half inch of precipitation which won't erase our rainfall deficit but every drop helps.
