…ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THIS AFTERNOON…

An anomalously dry airmass for early April will settle over the region today. As temperatures rise into the mid to upper 50s this afternoon, minimum relative humidity readings will drop to 20 to 30 percent. This combined with northwest winds gusts from 25 to 30 mph will result in elevated fire weather concerns this afternoon. While conditions will support elevated fire weather potential today, conditions have not been deemed critical enough to warrant a red flag warning thanks to recent substantial rainfall over these areas.
