Special Weather Statement issued November 16 at 5:08AM EST by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There is an increased risk for fire spread today for the Eastern
Shore of Maryland. Although minimum relative humidity values will
be between 40 and 50 percent, conditions remain dry, and
northwest winds will increase to 15 to 20 mph with 25 to 30 mph
gusts. These conditions could support the rapid 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 for your local area.
