The combination of low relative humidity values 20 to 30 percent
and west winds gusting to 20 to 30 mph will create an elevated
risk for fire spread across the region on Friday.

Exercise caution handling any potential ignition sources, including
machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Any fires that ignite will have
the potential to spread quickly.

This forecast considered meteorological, fuel, and land conditions,
and has been developed in coordination with MA, CT, and RI fire and
land management officials.
