There is an increased risk for fire spread this afternoon for
central and southern New Jersey and southeastern Pennsylvania.
Minimum relative humidity values will be between 25 and 35 percent
combined with northwest winds increasing to 15 to 25 mph and
gusts up to 40 mph. These conditions could support the rapid
spread of any fires that ignite, which could quickly become
difficult to control.

Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly
extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including
smoking materials such as cigarette butts.
