...Elevated Fire Danger on Sunday...
The combination of unseasonably warm temperatures, low relative
humidity, dry vegetation, and gusty south-southwesterly winds
will lead to a heightened threat of brush fire ignition and spread
on Sunday.
Any fires that ignite may become difficult to control. Outdoor
burning is strongly discouraged. Please heed any local burn bans.
Take care to prevent the start of accidental fires when handling
cigarettes or operating vehicles and farm equipment around dry
vegetation or crops.
Additionally, the gusty winds may cause dust from harvesting
activities to be blown around, resulting in localized sharp
visibility reductions. Motorists are thus advised to use caution
when driving near farmland.

...Elevated Fire Danger on Sunday...
Due to ongoing drought conditions, relative humidity values dropping

enhanced fire danger will develop on Sunday.
Burning is highly discouraged as any fires that form will spread
quickly and could become hard to control.
In addition to the fire risk, motorists should be aware of possible
visibility reductions in a few spots on area roadways as dust from
harvesting activities gets lofted by the gusty winds.

* RELATIVE HUMIDITY... Around 17-22%

are forecast to develop across eastern Colorado and affect
adjacent northwest Kansas and southwest Nebraska counties. A
wind shift to the north-northwest is forecast this evening due

Outdoor burning and activities that cause open sparks or flames
are discouraged. If out in fields for any harvesting activities
use extra caution today. Fire and emergency officials should be
aware that weather conditions will be favorable for the
