..ELEVATED FIRE DANGER TODAY
NORTHWEST WINDS GUSTING BETWEEN 30 TO 35 MPH WILL COMBINE WITH
LOW HUMIDITY AND DRY VEGETATION TO PRODUCE AN ELEVATED FIRE
DANGER THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING. IF A FIRE WERE TO START UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS, THERE WOULD BE AN INCREASED THREAT OF FIRE
SPREAD AND IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL.
OUTDOOR BURNING IS STRONGLY DISCOURAGED. USE EXTRA CAUTION WHILE
OPERATING OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT AROUND DRY VEGETATION AND DO NOT
CARELESSLY DISCARD CIGARETTES.
