Special Weather Statement issued March 11 at 8:59AM EDT by NWS Upton NY The combination of the relative humidity dropping to 30 to 40 percent and a few wind gusts approaching 20 mph could contribute to an elevated risk of fire spread today, mainly in the afternoon and away from the coast. 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 takes into account weather, fuel, and land conditions, and was developed in coordination with Connecticut fire and land management officials and neighboring National Weather Service forecast offices.
