Following the passage of a dry cold front on Thursday morning,
relative humidity will fall into the low 30s and even upper 20s in
some locations across the North Carolina Piedmont and Foothills.
Winds will be gusty along and behind the front, so conditions will
be conducive meteorologically for the quick formation and spread
of fires. Fine fuel moisture is expected to plummet during the
late morning and early afternoon.
After coordination with local land managers and forestry
officials, a Fire Danger Statement has been issued for NC Forest
Service Districts 2 and 10. Consult your local burn-permitting
authority to determine whether you may burn outdoors. If you do
burn, exercise extreme caution.
