The worst of the winds are behind us, however, there is still plenty of wind to come Wednesday. Humidity remains low and this combination will challenge firefighting efforts through at least Wednesday evening.

Many areas have evacuation orders. Please minimize the risk to firefighters and follow those orders! 

Also, conditions are still too dry to undertake activities at risk for generating sparks such as mowing lawns and fields, using chainsaws, and recreational fire of any kind. Please wait.
