'Particularly Dangerous Situation Red Flag Warning' still in effect

On Wednesday, from 3 a.m. to 3 p.m. local time, a "Particularly Dangerous Situation (PDS) Red Flag Warning" will remain in effect in the region, according to NWS. Meaning that there is a high risk of the following:

• Many downed trees

• Extreme fire behavior

• Rapid fire growth

• Power outages

• Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS)

Strong winds to pick up again

The extreme fire weather and gusty winds created favorable conditions for fires to spark and spread across Southern California, according to the NWS. And there's potential for it to happen the following week.

"Critical" fire weather conditions could pick back up on Wednesday, January 22, and remain in effect until Saturday, January 25, as another round of Santa Ana Winds sweeps across Southern California.

If conditions are realized, Southern Californian residents can expect to see the following, according to NWS LA:

• Widespread critical fire weather conditions

• Downed trees/power lines

• Poor air quality

• Power outages

During the forecasted time frame, there is a 40% to 60% chance of "hazardous high winds."
