Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0935 AM CST Sat Nov 09 2024

Valid 091700Z - 101200Z

The current forecast remains on track.

... Greater Southern New England Area ...

A very dry airmass remains in place across the region, with
afternoon relative humidity values falling below 30%. Couple this
very dry and receptive fuels, the overall fire environment will be
susceptible to fire starts. The mitigating factor for extreme fire
behavior will be light northerly winds.

Across coastal regions of southern New England, a better overlap of
warm temperatures and slightly stronger winds will exist. Thus, the
elevated area was kept.
