| episode_narrative | A Red Flag warning effective 09/23-26/02 was issued for fire weather zones 618/619 for gusty ridgetop winds and poor relative humidity recoveries during an offshore wind event. The warning area included all but the southeast portion of Curry county as well as small parts of Coos (extreme south) and Josephine (extreme west) counties. The warning was extended to zone 620 from 09/24-25/02. This zone included almost all of Josephine county and far west Jackson county.Available data indicate that this warning verified at the Red Mound RAWS (zone 618) each night of the warning period. The Quail Prairie RAWS (zone 619) had sufficiently low RH values, but the winds did not meet warning criteria by a slim margin. The Onion Mountain RAWS (zone 620) verified a Red Flag Warning the one night it was in effect there and barely missed verifying the following night. Overall, it appears this event was handled well. |
