Meanwhile, dry air will settle over the region and dry out any helpful effects of the recent rains. The previous Fire Weather Watches were upgraded to Red Flag Warnings. Some of the windiest areas may see Red Flag conditions linger into Saturday. As the winds expand Thursday Night into Friday, Red Flag conditions may form over the interior mountains of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties on Friday, where a Fire Weather Watch is now in effect. * AFFECTED AREA...Most valleys and coasts of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. * TIMING...From 6 AM Thursday to 10 PM PDT Friday. * WINDS...Northeast to east 20 to 30 mph with gusts of 40 to 50 mph.
