Winds are predicted to be Northeast winds 20 to 35 with gusts to 45 mph, local gusts up to 60 mph.
 
The minimum daytime humidity values as low as 5 to 10 percent, with overnight humidity recoveries as low as 30 percent.

The greatest threats will be elevations above 1,000 in the East Bay Hills where the driest conditions and strongest winds are most likely. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly.
