...INCREASED FIRE DANGER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

A combination of dry vegetation, relative humidity lowering into the
mid 20s, and winds gusting between 15 to 20 mph will increase the
danger of fire start and spread this afternoon and evening.

Please exercise caution if handling open flames or equipment that
creates sparks. Dispose of cigarette buttes, matches, and other
flammable materials in appropriate containers. Keep vehicles off
of dry grass and obey local burn bans. Most dry grasses, dead
leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire
quickly.

Virginia law prohibits burning in the spring from midnight to
4 PM...February 15th through April 30th. Evening burning is
highly discouraged at this time due to the risk of holdover embers
heading into today.
