Weather Alert  

ELEVATED RISK FOR FIRE SPREAD SATURDAY The combination of low relative humidity values near 30 percent and northwest winds gusting 30 to 35 mph will create an elevated risk for fire spread across the region on Saturday. Exercise caution handling any potential ignition sources, including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Any fires that ignite will have the potential to spread quickly. This forecast considered meteorological, fuel, and land conditions, and has been developed in coordination with NY, NJ, and CT fire and land management officials.
