...INCREASED FIRE DANGER FROM NOON EDT TODAY THROUGH
THIS EVENING...

Relative humidity is forecast to fall to 20 to 25 percent across
much of northeast Georgia this afternoon, while temperatures are
forecast to be 2 to 3 degrees warmer than Wednesday. Winds are
expected to be lighter at around 5 mph, but the low humidity
combined with very dry vegetation and warm temperatures will
result in an elevated threat for the rapid spread of wildfire
across the area, especially this afternoon.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn today.
