Special Weather Statement issued March 28 at 6:41PM EDT by NWS Raleigh NC

Effective: Sat March 28, 2026, 6:41 PM
Expires: Sun March 29, 2026, 6:45 AM

Minimum relative humidity values between 20 and 35 percent and very dry fuels will lead to an increased risk for wildfires throughout central North Carolina on Sunday. While winds will be fairly light, today's gusty winds already evaporated moisture from the rain that fell across the area yesterday. Residents and visitors are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Additionally, exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks and keep vehicles off of dry grass. Most dry grasses, dead leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire quickly. Please be reminded that a statewide burn ban issued by the NC Forest Service is currently in place. Open burning of any kind is illegal.
