Special Weather Statement issued March 28 at 2:43AM EDT by NWS Blacksburg VA
The combination of recent dry weather, relative humidity falling to 25 to 30 percent, and west to northwesterly winds gusting to 25 mph will result in an elevated threat for the rapid spread of fires this afternoon into early evening.
Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether you may burn outdoors. If you do burn, use extreme caution since fires can quickly grow out of control under these conditions.
