The National Weather Service has issues a Red Flag Warning for nearly all of the Bay Area and Central Coast that will last from Tuesday at 11 a.m. through Thursday at 7 a.m.
The warning covers all but coastal Marin County and areas along the Salinas River and coastal North Monterey County.
A Red Flag Warning is issued when fire conditions are dangerous because of dry fuel, high wind speeds and low humidity.
Offshore winds are forecast to be above 25 mph, with gusts over 55 mph, according to the National Weather Service.
NWS recommended staying in touch with local fire agencies and making an emergency plan in case of evacuations.
