...INCREASED FIRE DANGER TOMORROW FOR PORTIONS OF WESTERN AND
SOUTH CENTRAL VIRGINIA...

The combination of lower relative humidity values in the 25-30
percent range, dry fuels, and SW winds gusting to 20-25 mph will
result in an increased risk for the rapid spread of wildfires
Tuesday across western and south central Virginia.

Residents are urged to exercise caution handling any potential
ignition source, including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Be
sure to properly discard all smoking materials. Any dry grasses
and tree litter that ignite will have the potential to spread
quickly.
