this afternoon.
Moderate westerly winds aloft are forecast to reach the surface

Fire Weather Warning Statement as of 3:10 am EST on January 8, 2009
... Red flag warning remains in effect from noon today to 5 PM EST

breezy west winds will be near 20 mph with higher gusts today. Rh
values will fall below 35 percent for 4 to 5 hours. Minimum values
will be 25 to 30 percent.
A red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions
are either occurring now... or will shortly. A combination of
strong winds... low relative humidity... and warm temperatures will
create explosive fire growth potential.
