...INCREASED FIRE DANGER TODAY FROM 11 AM UNTIL 7 PM...

Dry and windy conditions are forecasted for today. Relative
humidities during this afternoon will fall into the 20-25 percent
range across portions of northwest North Carolina as well as the
Piedmont of Virginia. Wind gusts of 25 mph to locally 35 mph are
also expected through late morning into early evening. These
conditions, combined with dry fuels such as fallen leaves and dead
brush, will result in increased threat of any fires burning out
of control across northwest North Carolina and portions of the
Piedmont of Virginia.

Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Please consult your
local burn permitting authorities as to whether burning is allowed
today.
