Northwest Fire Potential Summary
Large fire potential continues its downturn as cooler wetter weather remains in the Region. Despite occasional lightning and periods of wind, fire potential is unlikely to escalate until next weekend, when another warm dry period begins to become sufficiently established to bring higher fire danger conditions back into the Region.
