...Very High Cropland Fire Danger and Gusty Winds Today...

Northwest winds will gust between 25 to 40 mph late this morning
into the early evening today. These winds, along with cured crops
and low humidity levels, will lead to very high fire danger today.
Any fires that develop in cured croplands will spread quickly and
could become difficult to control.

Avoid brush or grass burning today, use extra caution with farm and
outdoor equipment, and do not carelessly discard cigarettes.

Also be sure to secure loose items as the wind may blow them
around today.
