Special Weather Statement issued March 2 at 3:18AM EST by NWS Raleigh NC

The combination of very dry fine fuels like grasses and tree
debris, limited rainfall in the last week, and very low relative
humidity dropping to 13 to 20 percent will lead to an elevated
risk of adverse fire behavior today.

People are urged to avoid outdoor burning 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.
