...NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS NORTHWEST
MINNESOTA TODAY...

Relative humidity values will drop to around 20 to 25 percent
along with southeast winds gusting up to 25 mph across northwest
Minnesota this afternoon and early evening. Given the dry fuels,
near critical fire weather conditions are expected for the
afternoon and early evening hours today. Any fire that does
develop has the potential to quickly spread.
