Full Notification

WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 70S AND MAYBE LOWER 80S, RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL DROP INTO THE 20 TO 25 PERCENT RANGE ACROSS FAR EASTERN KANSAS AND WESTERN AND CENTRAL MISSOURI. SINCE
THE RH WILL LIKELY REACH ITS MINIMUM PERCENTAGE MID DAY INTO THE AFTERNOON IT WILL BE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ARRIVING NORTHERLY 15 TO 25 MPH WINDS. THE COMBINATION OF THE WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL BRING MORE FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS TO THE AREA. FUELS ARE YET TO BE FULLY CURED, SO WILDFIRE POTENTIAL STILL REMAINS SOMEWHAT SUBDUED,
HOWEVER GIVEN THE DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ANY FIRE THAT DOES START WILL HAVE THE PROPER ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS TO SPREAD RAPIDLY.
OUTDOOR BURNING IS DISCOURAGED FOR THURSDAY, BUT SHOULD BURNING BE NECESSARY EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD BE EXERCISED.
