...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT TODAY MAY 20 FOR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER... A strong high pressure system over Ontario will bring an area of very dry air to northern Minnesota, along with a tight pressure gradient that will make for strong east winds. Relative humidity may drop as low as 15 to 20%, with east winds of 15 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 40 mph. Across eastern portions of the Red Flag Warning, a Wind Advisory is also in effect. The National Weather Service in Duluth has issued a Red Flag Warning for wind and low relative humidity, which is in effect from noon today to 9 PM CDT this evening. The Fire Weather Watch is no longer in effect. * AFFECTED AREA...In Minnesota, Koochiching, North St. Louis, Northern Cook and Lake, North Itasca, Central St. Louis and South Itasca. * WINDS...East 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. * RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 15 percent. * IMPACTS...Any fires that ignite could spread rapidly and become difficult to control. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now, or will shortly. A combination of strong winds, low relative humidity, and warm temperatures can contribute to extreme fire behavior.
