Special Weather Statement until 07:00PM 
Strong southwesterly winds, gusting 35 to 45 mph along with relative humidities in the 25 to 35 percent range will result in an elevated fire danger this afternoon and early evening for locations roughly south of I-80. These areas received minimal rainfall from showers and storms overnight. Any fires that start in these conditions will have an increased risk of spreading quickly. Avoid or delay any outdoor burning, use extra caution with any farm machinery, and fully extinguish cigarettes or matches before disposing of them properly.
