Special Statement as of 10:54 am EDT on April 20, 2016

Elevated fire danger this afternoon...

Temperatures climbing into the 50s and lower 60s today will

combine with a very dry air mass to produce relative humidity

values around 25 percent. Northwest winds gusting to near 25 mph

will diminish to around 10 to 15 mph this afternoon. The warm

temperatures and low relative humidity values may lead to an

elevated fire danger this afternoon. Open burning across the area
