Conditions and Outlook
Strong high pressure over the Mid-Atlantic continues to keep conditions tranquil, with no fire weather watches or warnings in effect. Light surface winds and moderate relative humidity maintain low risk, keeping significant fire potential at its lowest level through the next several days.
