Red Flag Warning Today

With much of the snow gone and plants yet to green up, given enough wind and low relative humidity values fuels (grasses) will become susceptible to burn. Southwesterly winds at 15 to 25 mph with gusts up to 40 mph at times, along with relative humidity values in the low 20s and dry fuels will make fire danger critical today. A Red Flag warning is in effect for portions of southeastern North Dakota and west central Minnesota. Avoid burning and use caution when disposing of smoking materials.
