Special Weather Statement
Issued: 8:55 AM Apr. 12, 2026 – National Weather Service
...ELEVATED RISK OF WILDFIRE SPREAD LATE THIS MORNING THROUGH
EARLY THIS EVENING...

The combination of drying fine fuels and leaf litter, low
relative humidity of around 35 percent and a southerly wind
gusting between 20 and 25 mph during the late morning and
afternoon hours, will create an elevated risk of wildfire spread
across the southern half of Pennsylvania today.

Residents are urged to exercise caution if handling any potential
ignition sources, such as machinery, cigarettes, or matches. If
dry grasses and tree litter begin to burn, the fire will have the
potential to spread rapidly.

For more information about wildfire danger and wildfire
prevention and education, please visit the Pennsylvania Department
of Conservation and Natural Resources website at
