A Fire Weather Watch means that critical fire weather conditions
are possible.

• Timing… from noon on Wednesday until 6 p.m. early Wednesday evening.

• Winds… northwest 20 to 35 mph with gusts up to 50 mph.

• Relative humidity… as low as 14 percent.

• Impacts… gusty winds combined with dry fuels will increase the
potential for rapid fire growth and extreme fire behavior.
