..INCREASED FIRE DANGER WEDNESDAY ACROSS THE LOWER MARYLAND
EASTERN SHORE...
On Wednesday, westerly winds increase to 10 to 15 mph with gusts
to 25 mph, along with afternoon relative humidity values dropping
to 25 to 35 percent. This will lead to another period with
elevated fire danger on Wednesday, especially during the
afternoon.
Residents are urged to exercise caution if handling any potential
ignition source, including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Be
sure to properly discard all smoking materials. Any dry grasses,
dead leaves, and other tree litter that ignite will have the
potential to spread fire quickly.
For more information about wildfire danger, burn restrictions,
and wildfire prevention and education, please visit your state`s
forestry or environmental protection website.
