...Fire Weather Concerns Across Western and North Central New
York today...

Dry conditions again today will continue to dry out fine fules,
such as leaf litter and grass. This will combine with southerly
wind gusts of 30 to 35 mph and afternoon relative values of 25 to
30 percent to elevate fire weather concerns. If any fires were to
start...the dry windy weather would increase the risk of wildfire
spread...making it difficult to contain.

The annual statewide burn ban is in effect until May 14th. No burn
permits are issued.
