In this case, they are specifically monitoring the potential for breezy offshore winds to develop midweek.

On its map, a large part of the Bay Area could be affected, as well as the Sierra Foothills and the northern part of the state. The company did not provide a specific list of counties that could be affected, stating "the scope of the weather event remains fluid."
