The relative humidity values are forecast to drop mostly into the
20 to 25 percent range later this morning and this afternoon, with
north to northwest wind gusts up to 25 mph. This will dry the fine
fuels some through the day. As a result, there will be an enhanced threat for fire spread today.

For more information about wildfire danger, burn restriction, and
wildfire prevention and education, please visit your state forestry
or environmental protection website.
