Headline: Special Weather Statement issued October 21 at 1:18AM EDT by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC
Description: Relative humidity will fall below 25 percent again this
afternoon across northeast Georgia. Given the dry vegetation and
low fine fuel moisture, outdoor fires will be able to spread
quickly once started, increasing the danger of wildfires.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authority on whether
you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution since
fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
