Special Weather Statement
Issued: 6:03 AM Oct. 24, 2025 – National Weather Service
...INCREASED FIRE DANGER FROM 11 AM EDT THIS MORNING
THROUGH THIS EVENING...

Although lighter winds are expected today compared to Thursday,
dry conditions will return with minimum relative humidity values
dropping to 20 to 30 percent. With land management agencies
reporting fine fuels such as leaf litter and dead brush still are
very dry, increased fire danger will return across western North
Carolina.

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.
