...Very High Cropland Fire Danger Today...

Gusty southwest winds are expected today, with gusts up to 30 mph
possible later this morning through the afternoon hours. These
winds, along with low humidity and unseasonably warm
temperatures, will lead to a very high cropland fire danger
today. Any fires that develop will spread quickly.

Avoid brush or grass burning today, use extra caution with farm and
outdoor equipment, and do not carelessly discard cigarettes.
