Description: Fine fuels remain very dry across the St. Lawrence Valley
according to the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation. This, combined with low relative humidity values of
30 to 35 percent and gusty southwest winds of 20 to 30 mph may
have an impact on fire weather conditions. If any fires were to
start, the weather and fuel conditions could cause fires to
spread quickly and be difficult to contain.

For more information about the current fire danger rating, any burn
restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit
the New York State forestry or environmental protection website.
