* AFFECTED AREA...In Oregon, Fire Weather Zone 689 Northern Willamette National Forest and Fire Weather Zone 690 Southern Willamette National Forest. * THUNDERSTORMS...A 15 to 25% chance of dry thunderstorms. Storms may produce very little rainfall, increasing the risk fo new fire starts from dry lightning. * OUTFLOW WINDS...Instantaneous gusts as high as 40 mph. Gusts at these speeds can be observed tens of miles away from the core of the thunderstorm. * DRY AND UNSTABLE...Unstable conditions with elevated mixing heights may promote pyroconvective activity over ongoing fires. * IMPACTS...Conditions will be favorable for rapid fire spread which may threaten life and property. Thunderstorm outflow winds may result in unanticipated erratic fire spread. High instability may result in fire growth. Frequent lightning and critically dry fuels may result in new fire starts.

A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now, or will shortly. A combination of the above conditions can contribute to extreme fire behavior.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
