Burn ban remains in effect for McDowell County. Critical fire weather expected again today. 
From the National Weather Service: INCREASED FIRE DANGER FROM 11 AM EST THIS MORNING THROUGH THIS EVENING... Another very dry day is expected today, with minimum relative humidity of 15 to 20 percent during the afternoon. While winds will be much weaker and temperatures much cooler, dry vegetation due to lack of recent rainfall combined with the dry air will once again enhance the wildfire danger across the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia. Postpone all outdoor burning.
