LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The National Weather Service said there are chances of thunderstorms in parts of northwest California on Monday and Tuesday.
Forecasters said a surge on “monsoonal moisture” will bring shower chances and a few isolated thunderstorms to the region.
Exact details on shower and isolated thunderstorm coverage and timing remain highly uncertain, the agency said late Sunday.
The potential for lightning raises concerns about the potential for fire starts considering how dry vegetation is across Northern California.
Any isolated thunderstorms this week are expected to also carry some small amounts of rainfall, the National Weather Service reported.
The specific Lake County forecast anticipates chances of showers and thunderstorms late Monday night, with light winds.
Temperatures this week also are expected to climb into the high 90s during the day, with nighttime temperatures in the high 60s.
