South to southwest winds will gust up to 35 mph this afternoon. These winds, along with cured crops, low humidity levels and temperatures of 85 to 90, will lead to very high to low-end extreme fire danger today. Any fires that develop in cured agricultural fields will spread quickly and become difficult to control. If conditions worsen further, a red flag warning may be needed for this area this afternoon. Avoid brush or grass burning today, use extra caution with farm and outdoor equipment, and do not carelessly discard cigarettes.
