The combination of 10 hour fuel moistures of 8 to 10 percent,
relative humidity around 25 percent, and wind gusts of 30 to 35
mph will lead to an increased risk for the rapid spread of
wildfires Tuesday afternoon.
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.
