Special Weather Statement issued March 7 at 3:48AM EST by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC
Despite below normal temperatures across the North Carolina Mountains on Sunday, a very dry air mass will be in place. Expect relative humidity values to drop to as low as 20 percent across many valley locations, with values around 25 percent in the higher elevations. Windy conditions are expected to develop with northwest winds 15 to 20 mph and gusts to 30 mph common across much of the area. The combination of low humidity and breezy conditions will lead to increased fire danger during the afternoon and early evening.
Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether you can burn today. If you do burn, use extreme caution since fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
