...INCREASED FIRE DANGER UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS EVENING...

Abnormally dry conditions continue over portions of western North
Carolina. The combination of low relative humidity and gusty west
to southwest winds of 20 to 30 mph has prompted the issuance of a
Fire Danger Statement for the Central and Northern Mountains and
the Piedmont. The statement is in effect until 6 pm this evening.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn. If you do burn, use extreme caution since fires can
quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
