Special Weather Statement issued October 26 at 3:11AM EDT by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There continues to be an increased risk of fire spread today.
Relative humidity values this afternoon will drop to 25 to 35
percent across much of the area. These low relative humidity
values will combine with northwest winds around 15 mph with gusts
up to 25 mph, and even occasionally as high as 30 mph,
temperatures in the mid to upper 60s, and abundant sunshine. These
conditions will support the spread of any fires that ignite,
which could quickly become difficult to control.
Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly
extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including
smoking materials such as cigarette butts. Refer to your state's
forest fire management agency for more information on burn
restrictions in your local area.
Relative humidity values will be lower on Sunday, generally
ranging from 20 to 30 percent, but winds will be much lighter.
Burn restrictions may still be in place given the very dry
conditions and lack of any recent rainfall.
