...Elevated Fire Weather Conditions This Afternoon...

Strong westerly winds gusting up to 35 MPH will combine with
mild temperatures, low humidity, and plentiful dried vegetation
to produce elevated fire weather conditions today. If a fire were
to start under these conditions, there would be an increased
threat of fire spread and be difficult to control.

Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Use extra caution while
operating outdoor equipment around dry vegetation, and do not
carelessly discard cigarettes.
