...INCREASED FIRE DANGER TODAY...

Low relative humidity values will impose an increased risk for fire
danger this afternoon.

Relative humidity values are expected to drop as low as 25% during
peak heating hours across northern West Virginia.

In addition, southerly wind gusts to 15-20 mph at times are expected
this afternoon, and this will work in tandem with the low relative
humidity values to create an increased risk for fire danger.

Exercise enhanced caution with activities that involve open flames or
sparks as fires can easily spread in these weather conditions.
