....Fire Weather Concerns Exist Across the Champlain Valley
Today...

Fine fuels remain very dry while leaf litter is increasing across
the Champlain Valley according to the New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation and the Vermont Department of
Forest, Parks and Recreation. This, combined with low relative
humidity values down to 30 percent and gusty northerly winds up to
25 mph may have an impact on fire weather conditions today. If
any fires were to start, the weather and fuel conditions could
cause fires to quickly spread and be difficult to contain. There
is a debris burning ban in effect for Vermont.

For more information about the current fire danger rating, any
burn restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please
visit your state forestry or environmental protection website.
