...Critical Fire Weather through Monday...

A cold frontal passage this morning will be followed this
afternoon by northerly winds gusting around 20 to 25 mph, and RH
will be dropping in the afternoon as a drier air mass arrives.
Lingering cloud cover will be the main inhibitor to more
widespread critical fire concerns today, but Red Flag Warnings
are now in effect where the confidence in lowest humidity overlaps
with strong post-frontal winds. With dry air continuing to filter
in tonight, there will be poor nighttime humidity recovery.

On Monday, the heart of the dry air mass will be in place, with
minimum relative humidities commonly in the 15-20 percent range.
Sustained northeast winds will be near 10 to 15 mph and support
extremely high dispersions. Full sunshine, seasonably warm late
April temperatures, and ongoing drought will all contribute to a
critical fire environment. A Fire Weather Watch remains in effect
for Monday where winds are currently forecast to touch 15 mph. The
watch has been expanded west and southwestward this update to now
include portions of the Florida Panhandle and extreme southeast
Alabama. Additionally some portions of southwest Georgia were
added to the fire weather watch.

* AFFECTED AREA...Georgia fire weather zones 120, 122, 123, 124,
and 126.

* WIND...Today, north 15 mph, with gusts near 25 mph.

* HUMIDITY...22-25 percent.

* IMPACTS...any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly.
Outdoor burning is not recommended.

Information: 
A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions
are either occurring now, or will shortly. A combination of
strong winds, low relative humidity, and warm temperatures can
contribute to extreme fire behavior.
