Special Weather Statement issued November 9 at 10:23AM EST by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There is an increased risk of fire spread today. Northwest winds
this morning into early afternoon will range from 10 to 15 mph
with gusts up to 20 mph as relative humidity values fall to 25 to
30 percent. Later this afternoon, relative humidity values will
fall to 20 to 25 percent, but at that time, winds become north and
will diminish to 5 to 10 mph. 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. Burn restrictions and
burn bans are in effect for some areas. Refer to your state's
forest fire management agency for more information on burn
restrictions in your local area.
