Today's Fire Danger Level
IGNITION:
Fuels do not ignite readily from small firebrands although a more intense heat source, such as lightning, may start fires in duff or dry rotted wood.
SPREAD:
Fires in open cured grasslands may burn freely a few hours after rain, but woods fires spread slowly by creeping or smoldering, and burn in irregular fingers.
SPOTTING:
There is little danger of spotting.
CONTROL: Easy
