...ELEVATED FIRE DANGER INLAND SW FLORIDA TODAY...

Low RH values of 25-35 percent are expected this afternoon into
early evening across inland portions of Southwest Florida. The low
RH values, combined with dry vegetation and persistent dry
weather, will create elevated fire concerns today.

Burn bans are currently in effect for Collier, Hendry, and Glades
counties.

Avoid outdoor burning. Keep vehicles off dry grass. Report any
fires to local authorities.
