expired · active · official-source
Near record high temperatures today will bring relative humidity values down into the 30 to 40 percent range today. This combined with wind gusts of 25 to 35 mph will create elevated fire weather conditions today. This could lead to rapid spread of fires, especially in agricultural areas where crops have become drier for harvest. Check burning restrictions and fire danger before burning. For more information on burning restrictions for Minnesota, see www.dnr.state.mn.us/forestry/fire/firerating_restrictions.html.
