...NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TODAY FOR FAR WESTERN
PORTIONS OF MINNESOTA...

Dry and breezy conditions will produce near critical fire weather

winds around 15 mph this morning will become northwest 15 to 20
mph this afternoon before diminishing this evening. Minimum
relative humidity values of 20 to 25 percent late this afternoon
into this evening are also expected. This combination may lead to
the rapid spread of fires.

Check burning restrictions and fire danger before burning.
