Special Weather Statement issued October 27 at 6:51PM EDT by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There continues to be an increased risk of fire spread through
Monday. Relative humidity values Monday afternoon will drop to 20
to 30 percent across much of the area. Winds will remain light
from the east to northeast around 5 to 10 mph, turning southeast
in the afternoon with temperatures in the low to mid 60s and
abundant sunshine. Vegetation remains very dry and could
potentially become fuel for fires. 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 recover to around 40 to 50 percent on
Tuesday with southerly winds around 5 to 10 mph with gusts up to
15 mph. Regardless, burn restrictions may still be in place given
the very dry conditions and lack of any recent rainfall. Refer to
your state or local fire officials for more information.
