...Elevated Fire Danger This Afternoon and Evening...

Warm, dry, and breezy conditions are expected to develop Friday
afternoon. We'll begin to see wind gusts rise between 20 and 25
mph at times, even gusting to 30 mph in a few locations. As
relative humidity values fall near 20 percent, elevated fire
weather conditions may develop.

Use extreme caution outdoors to prevent fire starts.
