...ELEVATED RISK OF FIRE SPREAD 11 AM TO 6 PM FRIDAY...

The combination of dry fuels, gusty northwest winds up to 25 to 35
mph, and minimum relative humidity values near 40 percent will
contribute to an elevated risk of fire spread across southern New
England. The lowest relative humidity and strongest wind gusts
are expected during the late morning to mid afternoon hours on
Friday.

Use extra caution if handling any potential ignition sources such
as machinery or matches, and ensure to properly extinguish or
dispose of cigarette butts.
