Continued dry fuels and low humidity across the region raise concern for increased fire danger. Although winds will not be as strong as the previous day, relative humidity values nearing critical levels combined with dry fuels support a continued elevated fire weather threat across the Midlands and CSRA. Outdoor fires will have the potential to spread quickly, increasing the danger of wildfires. A statewide burn ban remains in effect for South Carolina until further notice.

Although wind speeds will be much lower today, the combination of dry fuels from the ongoing drought and low to moderate relative humidity levels will continue to produce an increased fire danger across northeast SC and southeast NC as per fire officials.

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. Please be reminded that statewide burn bans have been issued by the SC Forestry Commission and the NC Forest Service until further notice which means most open burning is illegal.

While moisture is expected to begin slowly recovering today, another very dry afternoon is expected with relative humidity values between 15 and 25 percent forecast across much of the area. Although winds will be mostly light, between 5 and 10 mph, the dry air combined with very dry vegetation will result in a continuation of elevated fire danger. Statewide burn bans are in effect for both North Carolina and South Carolina until further notice. Open burning of any kind is subject to fines until the bans are lifted.
