Fire Weather Coordination Message #2 – Friday Evening 11/8/24 Through Saturday 11/9/24 Fire Weather & Strong Wind Gust Potential

Hello to all…

..Continued very dry conditions and strong wind gusts of 30-40 MPH with isolated higher wind gusts will set the stage for continued critical fire weather conditions for Southern New England through Saturday. A Red Flag Warning is now in effect through 6 PM Saturday Evening for all of Southern New England due to the potential for fire spread if any sort of outdoor brush fire is ignited. Outdoor burning is not recommended..
..There is no reporting criteria for fire weather so this message is sent out for public safety purposes, however, Amateur Radio SKYWARN Coordinators will be monitoring reports of brush fires and their spread in the region. Below is the NWS Boston/Norton Red Flag Warning Statement and Enhanced Hazardous Weather Outlook..
