...ELEVATED WILDFIRE DANGER POSSIBLE SATURDAY...

Widespread elevated to near critical fire danger is anticipated
Saturday afternoon across the region. Afternoon relative
humidities dipping into the 15-25% range combined with very dry
fuels are the main concerns.

While winds are not anticipated to exceed 10-15 mph, the very dry
conditions and fuels will make it possible for wildfires to
ignite and spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

If a wildfire is observed, report it by dialing 911 or by contacting
the Arkansas Department of Agriculture at (800) 468-8834.
