Special Weather Statement issued November 16 at 1:23AM EST by NWS Wakefield VA

Effective: Sun November 16, 2025, 1:23 AM
Expires: Sun November 16, 2025, 6:00 PM

The combination relative humidity values falling to between 28 and 35 percent, and strong west-northwest winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph, will lead to an increased risk for adverse fire behavior later today, especially later this afternoon. Outdoor burning is discouraged. 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. Lastly, remember to obey local burn bans. For more information about wildfire danger, burn restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit your state forestry or environmental protection website.
