...ELEVATED FIRE DANGER THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...

The combination of low relative humidity values between 20 and 30
percent, northwest winds around 10-15 mph, gusting between 15 to
20 mph, and drying fuels will increase the potential for the
spread of fires today.

Residents are urged to exercise caution handling any potential
ignition source...including machinery... cigarettes...and matches.
Be sure to properly discard all smoking materials. Any dry grasses
and tree litter that ignite will have the potential to spread
quickly.
