Definitely, conditions are very, very dry and volatile. |
Five percent humidity. That's just unheard of this time of year. |
I can't tell you how fast these fires have ignited. It's just crazy. |
If you don't catch it there, there's not another natural fire break. |
It is really depressing if you look at the 90-day forecast, because there doesn't appear to be any relief in sight during that time. That's why we have all jumped on this so quickly; the conditions just aren't going to improve anytime soon and this fire danger will be with us until they do. This is not a short term thing. |
It just seems like Mother Nature's not cutting us any slack. They're telling us now that our first chance of rain is Friday the 13th, which doesn't give me a lot of hope. |
It's definitely going to help for a couple of days, but the burn bans are going to stay in place until county officials deem it safe to lift them. We're definitely not out of the woods yet. |
It's looking better now, but we're leery of the sun shining full strength and the winds picking up again. |
It's pretty bad. Our biggest concern is the wind and relative humidity is very similar to what we saw March 12; hopefully it's not a repeat. |
It's random, all over the state. You could throw a dart at a map and that would be as good a prediction as any. |
No rain until the thirteenth is what they're saying, so not good. |
Our big concern today is we're going to be experiencing a lot of wind and low humidity. |
That has us all real concerned. We have every resource out now. |
That's all it takes. I haven't heard of any started by carelessness which is wonderful. The media helped get the word out to people that conditions are really dire right now. |
The winds have died down, which has helped a lot. |
