The combination of 10 hour fuel moistures around 10 percent relative humidities around 25 to 35 percent, and wind gusts around 25 to 30 mph, and up to 40 mph on exposed ridges, will lead to an increased risk for the rapid spread of wildfires today. This is also being paired with poor overnight recoveries at elevations above 1500 feet, which may even further enhance the threat in those areas.
Residents and visitors are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Additionally, exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks and keep vehicles off of dry grass. Most dry grasses, dead leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire quickly.
Lastly, remember to obey local burn bans. For more information about wildfire danger, burn restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit your state forestry or environmental protection website.
