Special Weather Statement issued March 28 at 4:48AM EDT by NWS Mount Holly NJ
There is an elevated risk for fire spread today for Delaware and
the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Minimum relative humidity values
will fall into the 20-30% range. This will be accompanied by
northwest winds around 15 to 25 MPH and gusts up to 35 MPH. These
conditions, along with the continued drying of fine fuels, could
support the rapid spread of any fires that ignite, which could
quickly become difficult to control. Conditions improve close to
sunset as winds decrease and RHs increase.
Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly
extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including
smoking materials such as cigarette butts.
This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions
and has been developed in coordination with state fire officials.
