There continues to be an increased risk of fire spread today. Relative humidity values this afternoon will drop to 20 to 30 percent across much of the area. Winds will be lighter compared to yesterday, coming from the north to northwest around 5 to 10 mph, turning west in the afternoon with temperatures in the upper 50s to low 60s and abundant sunshine. Vegetation remains very dry and could potentially become fuel for fires. These conditions will support the spread of any fires that ignite, which could quickly become difficult to control. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including smoking materials such as cigarette butts. Refer to your state's forest fire management agency for more information on burn restrictions in your local area. Relative humidity values will be around 25 to 35 percent on Monday with winds remaining around 5 to 10 mph. Burn restrictions may still be in place given the very dry conditions and lack of any recent rainfall.
