...Elevated Fire Danger This Afternoon and Early Evening...

Strong southwesterly winds today, gusting around 35 to 45 mph,
unseasonably warm temperatures, and low relative humidity will
result in an elevated fire danger this afternoon into the early
evening. Vegetation remains dry throughout the area as well.

Any fires that start in these conditions will have an increased
risk of spreading quickly. Avoid or delay any outdoor burning,
use extra caution with any farm machinery, and fully extinguish
cigarettes or matches before disposing of them properly.
