...ENHANCED RISK FOR FIRE SPREAD TODAY...

The combination of low relative humidity values between 25 and 35
percent and wind gusts up to 25 mph this afternoon will create an
elevated risk for fire spread.

Exercise caution handling any potential ignition sources,
including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Any fires that
ignite will have the potential to spread quickly.

This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions
and has been developed in coordination with state fire and land
management officials. Please comply with all state and local burn
bans.
