Full Notification

Gusty winds and a dry airmass will combine with dry grasses and other fine fuels to create elevated to near critical fire weather conditions through late afternoon. The most significant conditions will occur along and west of a line from Janesville to Green Lake during the late morning and afternoon hours, where humidity values will fall to near 25 percent, with south winds gusting 30 to 40 MPH. Fires will very easily start and rapidly spread due to these weather conditions. Use extreme caution if working outdoors with any sources of spark or open flame, and strongly consider postponing any planned open burning until a more favorable weather day.
