Special Weather Statement issued March 27 at 3:40AM EDT by NWS Binghamton NY

Relative humidity will drop as low as 20 to 25 percent this
afternoon, along with west-southwest winds gusting up to 20 mph.
These dry and breezy conditions will pose an elevated risk for
wildfire spread this afternoon in parts of Northeastern
Pennsylvania.

Residents are urged to exercise caution if handling any potential
ignition sources, such as machinery, cigarettes, or matches. If
dry grasses and tree litter ignite, the fire will have the
potential to spread rapidly. Be sure to heed any local and state
burning regulations.
