Weather right for burning

... SEVERAL CONTROLLED BURNS WERE SCHEDULED TODAY ACROSS THE STATE...

IDEAL WEATHER CONDITIONS ALLOWED SEVERAL LAND MANAGEMENT AGENCIES TO BURN UNDERBRUSH ACROSS THE STATE. DUE TO THIS... SMOKE PLUMES WERE POSSIBLE. HOWEVER... THESE BURNS ARE BEING COMPLETED BY PROFESSIONALS WITH FIRE SUPPRESSION CAPABILITIES.

DUE TO THE LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS... RESIDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO BE CAREFUL WITH ANY OUTDOOR BURNING... INCLUDING USING OUTDOOR GRILLS AND FARM EQUIPMENT.

THESE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK... AS LOW MOISTURE LEVELS CONTINUE ACROSS THE STATE.
