...Burning discouraged today due to dry and windy conditions...

Dry and windy conditions today could lead to potentially rapid
fire growth should any fires develop today. Current forecasts
project 10 hour fuel moistures around 8 percent, and relative
humidity is projected to be close 25 percent. These conditions
are near red flag levels. If mixing brings drier conditions to the
surface, red flag conditions may be met. After recent rains the
fuel conditions below the near surface layer has been reported by
some agencies to still be marginally wet. Much lighter winds are
expected on Thursday.
