Fuels continue to remain dry across the region and several contained wildfires were noted on the SC Forestry webpage. While winds will not be as strong as they were on Monday, northeasterly winds around 10 to 15 mph are expected with gusts 20 to 25 mph from mid morning through the afternoon before diminishing a bit late this afternoon. Critical relative humidity with values around 25 percent combining with dry fuels these winds support a continued elevated fire weather threat across the Midlands and CSRA. Given the dry vegetation and increased winds, outdoor fires will have the potential to spread quickly, increasing the danger of wildfires. Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution as fires can quickly get out of control under these conditions.
