Special Weather Statement issued December 8 at 4:46AM EST by NWS Raleigh NC

Breezy and marginally low relative humidity values are expected
today across the Northwest Piedmont through this afternoon.
Relative humidity values are expected to fall into the low 30s to
upper 20s and combine with frequent wind gusts of 20 to 25 mph.

These conditions combined with land management agencies
identifying dry fuels and an increase in fire activity will result
in a favorable environment for fires to spread.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution since
fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
