URGENT - FIRE WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
219 AM PDT Sat Aug 15 2020

...POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED DRY LIGHTNING LATE SATURDAY INTO EARLY 
SUNDAY...

.Moist unstable air will bring a slight chance for fast moving 
high based storms with little to no accompanying wetting rains.
This air mass will move roughly from south to north beginning in
the Central Coast this afternoon/evening before transitioning 
into the Bay Area overnight into early Sunday. Given dry fuels
and hot dry conditions near the surface, dry lightning can 
directly lead to wildfire starts. Onshore winds near the coast
late Saturday may lead to additional complications for any fire 
starts in proximity to the sea breeze.
