...Elevated Fire Risk Expected This Afternoon into Early
Evening...

The combination of gusty winds and low afternoon relative
humidities will lead to an elevated fire risk today. Sustained
south to southwest winds from 5 to 15 mph with some higher gusts
into the 15 to 25 mph range are expected during the afternoon
hours. Relative humidities will range from the upper 20s to mid
30s. These conditions could allow for fires to become
uncontrolled.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn today. Use extreme caution when burning as fires may
get out of hand quickly in these conditions.
