...ELEVATED FIRE DANGER TODAY...

The combination of gusty northwest winds and dry conditions will
make for a very elevated fire danger this afternoon, especially
for areas along and south of I-80. Therefore, any burning should
be postponed until after conditions improve and extra caution
should be used when discarding any burning materials, such as
cigarettes, today.
