Elevated Fire Danger Through Thursday

Clear and Quiet Weather Continues through Thursday

Elevated fire danger will continue Wednesday and Thursday due to very little recent rainfall, occasionally breezy winds, and low relative humidity. Winds will be on the light side this Wednesday, but southwest breezes will increase on Thursday. Prevent wildfires by being careful with any outdoor activities involving fire/sparks.

Weather remains quiet through Thursday as high pressure will continue clear skies tonight followed by daytime highs in the 70s and 80s. Be sure to be careful with any outdoor activities this week as this dry air will continue Elevated Fire Weather concerns until chances of showers return this weekend.
