Special Weather Statement issued February 8 at 12:56AM EST by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC

Effective: Sun February 8, 2026, 12:56 AM
Expires: Sun February 8, 2026, 7:00 PM

Dead brush and leaf litter have become very dry in northeast Georgia, and will continue to dry today as relative humidity becomes very low, falling to less than 25 percent. Winds will be light, but the low humidity and fuel moisture together mean that fires will be able to spread quickly once started. Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution since fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.

Special Weather Statement issued February 8 at 12:18AM EST by NWS Peachtree City GA

Expires: Sun February 8, 2026, 7:00 PM

Relative Humidities of 25 percent or less can be expected for 4 or more hours this afternoon into the evening. Winds will be southeast to southwest (and variable at times) at 3 to 7 mph. With dry fuels, high fire danger conditions can be expected. Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities whether you may burn outdoors. If you do burn outside, use extreme caution.

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.
