...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED SATURDAY, MAY 16TH... .Warm, dry, and breezy weather on Saturday will lead to critical fire weather conditions across western and central Upper Michigan. While highs are only expected to get into the 70s to lower 80s, west to eventually northwest winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph and RHs falling into the 18-25% range will allow for rapid fire growth and spread during the late morning to afternoon hours on today. Follow all burn bans in place as weather conditions are ideal for rapid fire spread! * AFFECTED AREA...Fire Weather Zone 002 Ontonagon, Fire Weather Zone 004 Baraga, Fire Weather Zone 005 Marquette, Fire Weather Zone 006 Alger, Fire Weather Zone 009 Gogebic, Fire Weather Zone 010 Iron, Fire Weather Zone 011 Dickinson, Fire Weather Zone 012 Menominee, Fire Weather Zone 013 Delta, Fire Weather Zone 014 Southern Schoolcraft, Fire Weather Zone 084 Southern Houghton and Fire Weather Zone 085 Northern Schoolcraft. * TIMING...From 11 AM EDT /10 AM CDT/ this morning to 9 PM EDT /8 PM CDT/ this evening. * WINDS...West-northwest 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. Winds shift northwest this afternoon over the central and west and north-northwest over the east. * RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 18 percent. * IMPACTS...Any fire that develops will catch and spread quickly. 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 and exceptionally dry fuels will create dangerous wildland fire conditions. Campfires, outdoor grills, smoking materials, fireworks, chain saws, and all-terrain vehicles all have the potential to throw a spark and ignite a dangerous and destructive fire. Please advise the appropriate officials or fire crews in the field of this Red Flag Warning.

Dry conditions and gusty winds will lead to near-critical fire weather conditions Saturday. West winds of 5 to 15 mph with gusts of 20 to 25 mph are forecast, gradually turning northwest this afternoon as a cold front moves through the area. Minimum relative humidity values of 18 to 26 percent are also expected. Together, these conditions could lead to the rapid spread of fires. Check burning restrictions and fire danger before burning.

Pine fuels have reached their peak volatility and fine fuels have still not greened up over northern Wisconsin, so dry and windy weather will bring elevated to near-critical fire weather conditions to mainly northern Wisconsin this afternoon. Dry air will reside over northern Wisconsin this afternoon. Very low relative humidity, west winds gusting to 25 to 30 mph and warm temperatures will result in elevated to near-critical fire weather conditions across the Northwoods this afternoon. Conditions will be most critical in areas that did not receive significant rainfall last night. Residents are urged to be careful with any activities that could potentially lead to a wildland fire. Campfires, outdoor grills, smoking materials, chain saws, and all-terrain vehicles all have the potential to throw a spark and ignite a dangerous and destructive fire.
