Special Weather Statement issued November 12 at 7:02PM EST by NWS Mount Holly NJ There is an increased risk for fire spread through early Wednesday evening. In the afternoon, minimum relative humidity values are expected to fall into the 20-30% range. Wind gusts will be around 15 mph. Due to the combination of marginal winds and very low relative humidity values, these conditions could support the rapid spread of any fires that ignite, which could quickly become difficult to control. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including smoking materials such as cigarette butts. Burn restrictions and burn bans are in effect for some areas. Refer to your state's forest fire management agency for more information on burn restrictions for your local area.
