...INCREASED FIRE DANGER FROM NOON EDT TODAY THROUGH 8 PM EDT
THIS EVENING...
Gusty winds and low relative humidity will develop this afternoon
across northwest and north central North Carolina, especially the
foothills and piedmont area. No significant widespread rainfall
has occurred in recent days. The combination of relatively dry
fuels, afternoon low relative humidity values in the 20 to 25
percent range, and gusty northwest winds of 10 to 20 mph with
gusts of 25 to 30 mph at times, will result in an increased risk
for the spread of wildfires.
Anything that could result in the start of a wildfire should be
avoided today. Use extreme caution with disposal of such items as
cigarettes and other incendiary material as well as the use of any
machines that may create sparks or an ignition source. Follow all
guidance from local officials regarding outdoor burning and burn
bans.
