Special Weather Statement issued March 8 at 10:51AM EST by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There is an elevated risk for fire spread through this afternoon
in New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and northeastern
Maryland. Minimum relative humidity values will fall to between 20
and 30 percent. This will be combined with northwesterly winds of
15 to 25 mph with gusts to around 35 mph. These conditions along
with the continued drying of the fine fuels will 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. Refer to your state's
forest fire management agency for more information on burn
restrictions for your local area.
