Weather Alert

...INCREASED FIRE DANGER TODAY...

Very low relative humidity levels between 20 to 25 percent
combined with frequent wind gusts between 15 to 20 mph will
result in further drying of the fine fuels such as grasses,
leaf litter, and pine straw.

This combination of gusty winds, lowering relative humidities, and
the lack of rainfall will lead to an increased fire danger risk
for central North Carolina.

Outdoor burning is discouraged. Please refer to your local burn
permitting authority on whether you can burn.
