...ENHANCED RISK OF WILDFIRE SPREAD THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...

LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS, GUSTY WINDS TO AT LEAST 20 MPH AND
DRY FINE FUELS WILL CONTINUE AN ELEVATED RISK FOR THE MORE RAPID 
SPREAD OF ANY WILDFIRES THROUGH THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON.

MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES GENERALLY IN THE 20 TO 30 PERCENT
RANGE WITH WIND GUSTS NEAR 20 MPH ARE EXPECTED OVER MOST OF THE
AREA.

HOWEVER...THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF SUSSEX COUNTY NEW JERSEY AND AS
WELL THE POCONOS OF CARBON AND MONROE COUNTIES WAS ADDED TO THE
AREA OF CONCERN WHERE WIND GUSTS OF NEAR 30 MPH ARE EXPECTED.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WILDFIRE DANGER, BURN RESTRICTIONS, AND
WILDFIRE PREVENTION AND EDUCATION, PLEASE VISIT YOUR STATE
FORESTRY OR ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION WEBSITE.

DRAG ..REISSUED FOR LOWER RH THIS AFTERNOON..
