Elevated Fire Risk Today

Fire Safety Tips

Some Accumulating Snow Possible Wednesday Night

Weather Whiplash The Rest of the Week!

2026 Spotter Training

South to southwest winds gusting up to 40 mph combined with dry conditions and mild temperatures will result in an elevated fire risk for much of the area today. It is strongly recommended to postpone any outdoor burning.

With the elevated fire risk today here are some tips or ways you can demonstrate fire safety.

A quick moving system will bring the potential (30-60%) for snow to the area Wednesday night into early Thursday morning. The track of the system has shifted south, and currently areas south of Hwy 30 are favored for a narrow band of accumulating snow. However, if these southward trends continue this potential would diminish north of Hwy 30 and increase further south. Amounts currently look to be light with an inch or two possible, which could lead to minor travel impacts. Stay tuned for updates!

Breezy to windy conditions today with south to southwest winds gusting up to 40 mph will usher in milder temperatures. This along with the dry conditions will result in an elevated fire risk, and outdoor burning should be avoided. A cold front will move through tonight and usher in more seasonable temperatures mid-week. A fast moving system will bring snow potential to parts of the area Wednesday night and early Thursday with light accumulations and minor travel impacts possible. This will be followed up by warmer and quiet conditions to end the week.
