…INCREASED FIRE DANGER THIS AFTERNOON FOR NORTH CAROLINA…
Low humidity will bring a greater risk of adverse fire behavior
and possible wildfires until early this evening.
Relative humidity values will drop to 15 to 20 percent with wind
speeds 5 to 10 mph.
Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you may burn outside today. If you must burn, use extreme caution
since fires can grow quickly and become dangerous in these
conditions. Ensure that fire suppression equipment is readily
available. Properly extinguish and dispose of any smoking
materials.
