...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS POSSIBLE ACROSS NORTHEASTERN MINNESOTA SUNDAY... .Breezy southwesterly winds gusting to 25 to 30 mph Sunday along with relative humidity values as low as 20 percent may lead to critical fire weather conditions across northeastern Minnesota late Sunday morning into Sunday evening.

Additional breezy southwesterly to southerly winds and low relative humidity values on Monday and Tuesday may lead to additional critical fire weather conditions. * AFFECTED AREA...In Minnesota, Koochiching, North St. Louis, North Itasca, Central St. Louis, North Cass, South Itasca, South Cass, Crow Wing, Northern Aitkin, South Aitkin, Carlton and South St. Louis and Pine. * WINDS...South southwest 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. * RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 20 percent. * IMPACTS...This combination of wind and minimum RH could lead to the rapid spread of fires.

A Fire Weather Watch means that critical fire weather conditions are forecast to occur. Listen for later forecasts and possible Red Flag Warnings.

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.
