Wildfire Weather: Our relative humidity was very low when this fire first broke out yesterday afternoon. Low relative humidity means the air is very dry, leading to fires spreading faster. The saving grace was weak winds, but this changes tomorrow in the wake of a cold front. Winds will be gusting over 20 mph, which may spread some of these fires. Relative humidity will be a touch higher this afternoon, but with a stronger breeze and still relatively dry air burning is a bad idea.
