A dose of Halloween fog is expected to push into the Southland Sunday night and bring a hint of moisture but officials say the fire danger will remain high through next week.
A dense fog advisory was issued by the National Weather Service for areas along the Los Angeles County, Orange County, and San Diego County coastal areas until Monday at 9 a.m.
Visibility will drop to less than a quarter mile at around midnight in some areas and drivers were urged to be careful, the NWS said. Morning commuters should expect slick roadways from drizzle-soaked pavement.
Trick-or-treaters and party goers can expect a mild and dry Halloween eve, with patchy fog in some areas, the NWS said.
Meanwhile, low humidity and dry conditions are keeping fire officials alert.
Red Flag conditions will continue in the mountains of Orange County indicating high fire danger.
A fire weather watch is in effect for Tuesday into Wednesday. An increasing ridge of high pressure is expected to kick up wind gusts in the region, with some areas such as the San Bernardino and Santa Ana mountains seeing winds as strong as 50mph Tuesday into Wednesday, the NWS said.
Forecasters are calling for cooler temperatures later in the week, with highs in the low 60s.
