Special Weather Statement issued March 8 at 12:09PM EST by NWS State College PA
A combination of dry and windy conditions will create an elevated
risk of wildfire spread across southeastern PA, mainly south of
I-80 and east of I-99. Minimum relative humidity values will
dip into the 20s accompanied by wind gusts between 20 and 30 mph.
Residents are urged to exercise caution if handling any potential
ignition sources, such as machinery, cigarettes, or matches.
If dry grasses and tree litter begin to burn, the fire will have
the potential to spread rapidly.
