Special Weather Statement issued March 9 at 10:04AM EDT by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There is an elevated risk for fire spread this afternoon in New
Jersey, Delaware, and eastern Pennsylvania. Minimum 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.
