INCREASED FIRE DANGER CONTINUES THROUGH THIS EVENING

Another very dry day with minimum relative humidity of 15 to 20
percent through this afternoon. While winds are much weaker and
temperatures much cooler, dry vegetation due to lack of recent
rainfall combined with the dry air has once again enhanced the
wildfire danger across the western Carolinas and northeast
Georgia. Multiple wildfires are ongoing across the area, and the
South Carolina Forestry Commission has issued a burn ban for the
entire state. Outdoor burning is also strongly discouraged across
the remainder of the area.
