 Local Radar Image Forecast and Conditions for Brookings, Oregon
 Fire Weather Warning
... Red flag warning now in effect until 11 PM PDT this evening for moderate offshore winds and low relative humidities in fire weather zone 618 in Curry County Oregon and fire weather zone 280 in western Siskiyou County California... The red flag warning is now in effect until 11 PM PDT this evening. A thermal trough along the coast will continue to produce breezy conditions over the ridge tops and along the coast through this evening. Sustained northeast winds of 6 to 20 mph at mid and higher elevations of western Siskiyou County... and 6 to as high as 25 mph along the coast and in the Curry County coastal mountains this morning will weaken some and become less widespread this afternoon and evening as high pressure over eastern Oregon weakens. Meanwhile... poor relative humidity recoveries this morning of 25 to 40 percent in western Siskiyou County... and of only 20 to 30 percent along the coast this morning... will lead to another very dry afternoon. Relative humidities this afternoon through this evening will bottom out between 8 and 18 percent this afternoon. High pressure over eastern Oregon and the thermal trough along the coast are both expected to weaken this evening... causing winds to decrease and relative humidities to recover better... bringing an end to red flag warning conditions. A red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now... or will shortly. A combination of strong winds... low relative humidity... and warm temperatures will create explosive fire growth potential.
