...ELEVATED RISK FOR FIRE SPREAD TODAY...

The combination of recent dry weather, northwest winds gusting 20
to 30 mph, minimum relative humidity values between 25 and 40
percent, and dry fuels will contribute to an elevated risk of fire
spread today for portions of eastern New York, including the
eastern Catskills, Capital District, Mid-Hudson Valley, and the
Taconics. Winds will diminish this afternoon to less than 20 mph.

Any outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Use extra caution if
handling any potential ignition sources, such as machinery or
matches, and ensure to properly extinguish or dispose cigarette
butts. Please refer to the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation web site for information on burn restrictions.
