...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS ON FRIDAY FOR SOUTHERN
CONNECTICUT..

The combination of recent dry weather, very dry fuels and relative
humidity between 30 and 40 percent will make conditions once again
favorable for wildfire spread on Friday. Fires that start have
the potential to spread quickly and may become difficult to
contain.

Use caution when handling and disposing of ignition sources.

The risk of wildfire spread on Saturday should be even greater,
with similar relative humidity and northwest winds gusting to 20
to 25 mph.
