Weather Concerns

A warming and drying trend will continue through Saturday under a building high pressure system. This will cause the fire to increase activity in heavy pockets of fuel which will produce more smoke and settle into Yosemite's Valleys and drainages at night and into the morning. Smoke will be present until the inversion layer breaks in the morning as temperatures increase.



This warming and drying trend will continue through Sunday and then bring cooler conditions to the district for the early part of next week. No precipitation is expected during this period.
