...RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS
AFTERNOON...

A RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS
AFTERNOON. 

STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS OF 20 TO 25 MPH ARE COMBINING WITH RELATIVE
HUMIDITY VALUES BELOW 25 PERCENT TO PRODUCE AN ENHANCED FIRE
DANGER. THESE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO IMPROVE AFTER SUNSET AS
WINDS DIMINISH.

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 WILL
CREATE EXPLOSIVE FIRE GROWTH POTENTIAL.
