...INCREASED FIRE DANGER UNTIL 7 PM EDT THIS EVENING...

Dry and windy conditions return to the area today behind a

expected to drop into the 25-30% range with intermittent wind
gusts up to 15-20 mph. This, combined with dry fuel conditions,
will result in increased fire danger across western North
Carolina, the Upstate of South Carolina and northeast Georgia.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution, as fires
can spread rapidly under these conditions.
