...ENHANCED FIRE DANGER CONDITIONS EXPECTED TODAY...

STRONG GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BEGIN OVER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
THIS MORNING... AND CONTINUE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. SUSTAINED WIND
SPEEDS WILL FREQUENTLY BE AROUND 15 TO 20 MPH FROM MID MORNING
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS... WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 25 TO 30
MPH. IN ADDITION... RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO FALL TO
BETWEEN 25 AND 30 PERCENT THIS AFTERNOON.

THESE CONDITIONS COMBINED WITH RECENT DRY AND WINDY WEATHER HAS LED
TO A DRYING OF FINE FUEL MOISTURE LEVELS ACROSS THE AREA. WITH COLD
TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 30S AND 40S EXPECTED DURING THE
AFTERNOON... THE WARMTH REQUIRED TO SUSTAIN FIRE GROWTH WILL BE
ABSENT. HOWEVER... BURNING IS NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO THE STRONG
WINDS... LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS... AND DRY LEAF LITTER...
WHICH COULD LEAD TO RAPID FIRE SPREAD.
