Benson, VT Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

...Fire Weather Concerns Exist Across the Champlain Valley and
much of Vermont Today...

Fuels remain very dry across northern New York and Vermont
according to the Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and
Recreation and the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation. This, combined with minimal relative humidity
values between 30% and 40% and northerly winds of 10 to 15 mph
with gusts 15 to 25 mph may have an impact on fire weather
conditions today. If any fires were to start, the weather and fuel
conditions could cause fires to quickly get out of control and be
difficult to contain.

For more information about the current fire danger rating, any burn
restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit
your state forestry or environmental protection website.
