...Fire Weather Concerns Exist Across Western and Central Portions
of Vermont on Thursday...

Fine fuels remain very dry across Vermont according to the
Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation. This,
combined with gusty northerly winds of 25 to 30 MPH and relative
humidity as low as 35%, may have an impact on fire weather
conditions. If any fires were to start the weather and fuel
conditions could cause fires to quickly get out of control and be
difficult to contain.

For more information about the current fire danger rating, any burn
restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit
your state forestry or environmental protection website. Remember, a
debris burn ban is in effect for all of Vermont which means no
open burning of debris is allowed.
