There is an increased risk for rapid fire spread this afternoon 
across portions of New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. Minimum 
relative humidity values will be around 25 to 35 percent combined 
with southerly winds of 10 to 15 mph with gusts near 20 mph. High 
temperatures will be in the mid 70s to near 80 degrees. These 
conditions, along with the continued drying of fine fuels, 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.
