Elevated Fire Danger and Dry, Windy Conditions Risk Sharp Visibility Reductions Near Farmland on Sunday, Next Rain Monday After 1 PM
O’HARE FORECAST …
The combination of unseasonably warm temperatures, low relative humidity, dry vegetation, and gusty south-southwesterly winds will lead to a heightened threat of brush fire ignition and spread on Sunday.
Any fires that ignite may become difficult to control. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Please heed any local burn bans. Take care to prevent the start of accidental fires when handling cigarettes or operating vehicles and farm equipment around dry vegetation or crops.
Gusty, Dry Conditions Risk Road Visibility Reduction
Additionally, the gusty winds may cause dust from harvesting activities to be blown around, resulting in localized sharp visibility reductions. Motorists are thus advised to use caution when driving near farmland.
