Monday's red-flag warning is a PDS, which stands for "particularly dangerous situation." But what does that mean? An NWS meteorologist explains.

A red flag warning has been issued for the Inland Empire and some cities in the Coachella Valley as strong gusty winds and low humidity are expected early next week. The warning is in effect from 10 a.

NWS' 3:40 a.m. advisory indicates winds were blowing northeast at speeds between 25 to 35 mph, with gusts up to 60 mph.

The National Weather Service issued a Red Flag Warning starting Monday for San Diego County's inland valleys and mountains.

"If fire ignition occurs, conditions are favorable for very rapid fire spread and extreme fire behavior," the NWS warns.
