Strong south winds gusting as high as 35 to 45 MPH, combined with unseasonably warm temperatures and dry conditions, will result in elevated fire danger this afternoon. Use extreme caution to avoid sparking a fire, especially in drier grasses or fields where fall harvest activities are underway, as rapid fire spread is likely. Scattered showers or a few thunderstorms are possible mainly west of Interstate 29 tonight. The risk of severe weather is low, but any showers or storms could locally enhance already gusty winds which will persist into tonight. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday. No hazardous weather is expected at this time. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected at this time. $$
