There will be elevated fire danger once again today south of I-80. North winds gusting to 25 to 35 MPH combined with abundantly dry grasses, brush, and fields means that there is a n increased threat for any fire that starts to quickly spread.

Near record high temperatures, dry conditions, and southwest winds with gusts up to 30 MPH today is resulting in elevated fire danger across the area. Avoid burning today!

***Travel Advisory***

The latest forecast shows that tonight we are likely to have close to a foot of snow hit our area, we ask that you avoid travel if possible. If you do have to travel, please keep your fully charged cellphone on your person, wear winter clothes, and prepare to be stranded in your vehicle if you do get into an accident as it may take emergency crews an extended time to reach you. We ask that you stay safe and call 911 if an emergency arises.

Thank you,

GFD
