Special Weather Statement issued May 5 at 3:24AM EDT by NWS Blacksburg VA

Effective: Tue May 5, 2026, 3:24 AM
Expires: Tue May 5, 2026, 6:00 PM

The combination of lower relative humidity values in the 20-30 percent range, dry fuels, and SW winds gusting to 20-30 mph will result in an increased risk for the rapid spread of wildfires Tuesday across western and south central Virginia. Residents are urged to exercise caution handling any potential ignition source, including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Be sure to properly discard all smoking materials. Any dry grasses and tree litter that ignite will have the potential to spread quickly.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
