...elevated fire weather danger predicted today...

a very dry air mass and breezy conditions will combine with dead
and dry fuels such as grass, leaves, and twigs to create the
potential for uncontrolled fire spread across the southern half of
new hampshire today. this afternoon, relative humidity values 
will decrease to low levels below 30 percent. at the same time 
westerly winds between 15 and 20 mph with frequent gusts to 
30 mph will continue to dry fuels and increase fire spread 
potential. the worst conditions are expected between 10 am and
7 pm. wind gusts are expected to diminish this evening with 
increasing relative humidity values.

extra caution should be taken to prevent wildfires. always consult
with local fire officials before engaging in any open burning
activities and comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
never leave an open fire unattended and always extinguish
campfires completely before leaving.
