Drought conditions have left everything parched and flammable, with humidity dipping as low as 35% in southern areas. The National Weather Service has issued alerts statewide, warning that even a small spark could ignite a fast-moving blaze. With most of the state already in drought — including severe drought in the southeast and southwest — residents are urged to exercise extreme caution, especially around open flames or potential ignition sources. Fire danger reports are updated daily, and restrictions on burning may soon follow. Stay alert — this combo of wind and dryness isn’t playing around.
