Fire weather watch issued through this afternoon

Advertiser Staff

The National Weather Service has issued a fire weather watch, effective this morning through this afternoon.

The watch was issued because of a combination of dry weather — producing combustible brush — low humidity and windy conditions.

A fire watch means critical fire weather conditions are forecast to take place.

A high pressure system north of the state will keep trade winds blowing.
