Special Weather Statement issued June 18 at 1:44AM EDT by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC

Effective: Thu June 18, 2026, 1:44 AM
Expires: Thu June 18, 2026, 1:45 PM

The combination of gusty southwest winds, hot temperatures, and extremely dry fuels will lead to an increased fire danger across the North Carolina Piedmont today. Dry grasses, dead leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire quickly. People in this area are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks, and keep vehicles off of dry leaves and grass.

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.
