…DRY CONDITIONS AND GUSTY WINDS WILL MAINTAIN A HIGH FIRE THREAT…

* WIND…Northeast wind 15 to 25 mph with higher daytime gusts,
especially over higher terrain.

* HUMIDITY…Down to 50 to 60 percent at times, mainly from
late morning until sunset.

* IMPACTS…Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly.
Outdoor burning is not recommended. Conditions will ease
during the nighttime hours.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…A relative moistening trend is expected
over the weekend as models are bringing in higher dewpoints,
increasing clouds, and isolated to low-end scattered showers.
However, winds 15 to 25 mph with higher gusts will continue,
so an elevated fire threat will remain. The Fire Weather Watch
continues through the weekend and may need to be upgraded to
Red Flag Warning if conditions warrant.
