The combination relative humidity values falling to between 20 and 25 percent, and southerly winds gusting 15 to 20 mph, will lead to an increased risk for adverse fire behavior today. Outdoor burning is discouraged. Residents and visitors are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Additionally, exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks, and keep vehicles off of dry grass. Most dry grasses, dead leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire quickly.
