...Fire Weather Concerns Exist Across The Champlain Valley
Today...

Despite recent rain, fine fuels are dry across portions of
Vermont according to the Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and
Recreation. This, combined with low relative humidity values of 25
to 35 percent this afternoon and gusty south winds of 30 to 40
mph mainly near Lake Champlain with sporadic gusts to 50 possible
through 2 PM 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.
