🚩 Elevated Fire Weather Concerns this Weekend A dry cold front arrives Saturday afternoon, creating a dangerous setup for the Northern Ranchlands (Zapata, Jim Hogg, and Brooks counties). With relative humidity as low as 15% and wind gusts of 20+ mph, any fire that starts will spread rapidly, especially in areas currently under a D2 (severe) or D3 (extreme) drought. Please avoid outdoor burning, properly discard cigarettes, and report fires to local authorities. As Smokey Bear says, Only You Can Prevent Wildfires. Be Firewise, also - and spread the word on prevention. Learn more at https://smokeybear.com and https://firewise.org.
