Special Weather Statement issued March 26 at 4:02PM EDT by NWS Upton NY

The combination of low relative humidity values between 20 and 30
percent and wind gusts 20 to 25 mph will create an elevated risk
for fire spread across the region on Thursday.

Exercise caution handling any potential ignition sources, including
machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Any fires that ignite will have
the potential to spread quickly.

This forecast considered meteorological, fuel, and land conditions,
and has been developed in coordination with CT fire and land
management officials.
