...INCREASED FIRE DANGER IN EFFECT WEDNESDAY FROM 11 AM UNTIL 6 PM...

Although recent rains have led to some increased soil moisture,
abnormally dry conditions are still present over portions of the
Piedmont. The combination of low relative humidity dropping into the
30 to 35 percent range with gusty southwest winds of 20 to 30 mph,
an Increased Fire Danger statement has been issued for the Piedmont.
This is in effect for Wednesday from 11 am to 6 pm. These weather
conditions will result in elevated fire potential and a threat of
adverse fire behavior.

Please consult your local burn permitting authorities as to whether
burning is allowed for Wednesday. If you must burn, use extreme
caution, as fires can spread rapidly under these conditions.
