  1. Inbound heatwave for Southern California (!) again. NWS Los Angeles:

    "Spread the word to
    prepare for yet another potential heat wave mid week"

    "...Rapidly increasing heat concerns are the main story over land with
    moderate to major heat risk and associated heat products becoming
    likely for many areas, especially coastal valleys to coast by
    Wednesday.

    The main player for the rapid changes is a ridge bulging in from
    the east with 500 mb heights steadily increasing from mid 580s to
    mid to upper 590s by Wednesday. Weak offshore flow from the north
    and possibly east by Wednesday will delay and weaken the sea
    breeze influence, allowing the significant heat to build towards
    the coast. Widespread highs in the 90s (including near some
    coasts) to low 100s will in its own right be hot. However the
    potential for extreme humidity (for Southern California) from
    incredibly high precipitable waters of 1.5-2 inches, well above
    normal ocean temperatures, and even recent or upcoming rainfall
    will make it MUCH more miserable outside and also keep temperature
    the 70s and 80s well into the evening and even overnight for some
    areas. This heat may feel comparable or even slightly worse to
    recent heat waves, especially near the coast. Spread the word to
    prepare for yet another potential heat wave mid week. Fortunately
    this one may be relatively short lived (see long term discussion)...."

  17. Areas under warning... Las Padres National Forest. All the foothills above Fillmore, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Santa Clarita... Angeles National Forest above Pasadena/Arcadia/etc. Looks like they did not push any populated areas into this particular warning. #RedFlagWarning #CAwx #wildfires #VenturaCounty #LACounty #SantaBarbaraCounty

  18. Opening a Family Justice Center here in Thousand Oaks is important and welcome news for the safety of residents here and throughout eastern Ventura County.

    A Family Justice Center provides a safe space for the victims of domestic violence, elder and child abuse, human trafficking, and hate crimes. It not only provides safety but also saves victims from having to travel back and forth to Ventura multiple times to seek justice.

    The City of Thousand Oaks is a proud partner with the Ventura County District Attorney's Office in establishing this first Family Justice Center in the east county.

    I'm also grateful to California Lutheran University, which will host the center and for the work of the Ventura County Family Justice Center Foundation in supporting victims.

    Ensuring the safety and well-being of all residents is Job One in local government. While crime overall is down, domestic violence in particular remains a stubborn blight that persists across all socioeconomic lines.

    This center helps address that. This helps make residents safer.

    The Ventura County DA's Office plans to lease a home on a Thousand Oaks university campus. Here's why.

  19. Possible (small possibility) of thunderstorms for LA/Ventura County this weekend.

    ".... Some monsoonal moisture will push back into SW CA this weekend with an
    increase mid level clouds at times, and by Sun some afternoon cu buildups cannot be ruled out in the mtns along with a non-zero chance (10%) of a shower or thunderstorm especially in the
    VTU/L.A. County mtns. ..."

  20. Cal Fire has recognized the Ventura County Fire Protection District as a fire risk reduction community, effective now through July 2028. This is important because (a) VCFPD is the agency responsible for fire prevention and response in Thousand Oaks and (b) recognition brings priority consideration for Cal Fire’s Wildfire Prevention Grants and helps inform wildfire risk ratings.

  21. Smoke report, 2088 Casual Court. (Note: typical for when the sun comes up, smoke starts becoming apparent and homeowners who are not evacuated will call in) 5/19/26 0758 #SandyFire #VenturaCounty #LACounty #wildfires

  22. Hmm, air quality varies depending on where you are. Looks like all the smoke is low down in the river bottoms and going down canyons at the moment. #VenturaCounty #LACounty #SandyFire

  23. 4 copters being launched to help keep Sandy Fire under control. Frequencies being used is CDF A/G and air tactics is 166.615Mhz. 5/19/26 0742 #SandyFire #VenturaCounty #LACounty #wildfires

  24. Main concern by the operations chief is making sure everyone coming off the line gets food and breakfast. 👏 5/19/2026 0725 #SandyFire #VenturaCounty #LACounty #Wildfires #CAwx

  25. Road conditions in Ventura County: "slicker than snot". Went into 4wd on a short drive because I was spinning my front wheels even on very slow acceleration off stop lights (in a relatively heavy vehicle with good tires). #slippery #wet #drizzle #VenturaCounty #DriveSafely #CAwx
