HAZARDOUS WEATHER
…INCREASED FIRE DANGER FROM 10 AM EST THIS MORNING THROUGH THIS EVENING…
Warmer conditions today combined with a very dry air mass will result in relative humidity in the 20 to 30% range this afternoon. This low humidity combined with dry vegetation will enhance the fire danger across the area.
Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution since fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
