A Fire Weather Watch is in effect for most of Northern and Central Nevada from 11 AM PDT Friday morning until 11 PM PDT Friday evening. The combination of critically dry fuels, very low relative humidity values, and strong, gusty west winds can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

West wind gusts near 45 mph are expected throughout Northern and Central Nevada from 11 AM PDT Saturday morning until 11 PM PDT Saturday evening. A Wind Advisory may be required. Blowing dust will reduce visibilities at times. Travel will be difficult, particularly for high profile vehicles.
