Special Weather Statement issued March 25 at 4:00AM EDT by NWS Raleigh NC
The combination of low relative humidity of 20 to 28 percent, wind gusts peaking at 20 to 30 mph later today, and dry fuels in place will create a risk of adverse fire behavior today over central North Carolina. This risk will be highest during the afternoon through early evening.
The North Carolina Forest Service has issued a statewide ban on all open burning until further notice, and all burning permits have been cancelled. Residents with questions can contact their NC Forest Service county ranger or their county fire marshal's office.
