## extract

Fire Weather Watch — Jackson County Below 9000 Feet; West Jackson and West Grand Counties Above 9000 Feet; South and East Jackson/Larimer/North and Northeast Grand/Northwest Boulder Counties Above 9000 Feet
Severity: Severe. Certainty: Possible.
...PROLONGED CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR THE
HIGH COUNTRY TODAY AND AGAIN ON TUESDAY...POTENTIALLY CONTINUING
THROUGH FRIDAY...

A warm and dry airmass will coincide with gusty west and
southwest winds today and Tuesday, and could potentially continue
through Friday. Sustained winds are expected to be 15 to 30 mph
across much of the high country this afternoon, with gusts up to
45 mph, strongest for exposed areas and higher elevations. These
conditions will drive very high fire danger across the warned
area. Any new starts or established fires will likely spread
rapidly under these conditions.

The National Weather Service in Denver has issued a Fire Weather
Watch for wind and low relative humidity, which is in effect from
Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday evening.

* AFFECTED AREA...Fire Weather Zones 211, 217 and 218.

* TIMING...From Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday evening.

* WINDS...Southwest 15 to 25 mph with gusts up to 40 mph.

* RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 12 percent.

* IMPACTS...Conditions will be favorable for rapid fire spread.
Avoid outdoor burning and any activity that may produce a
spark and start a wildfire.
