...Elevated fire danger across northern lower Michigan today...

The combination of drying fuels, low relative humidity values, and
gusty winds will result in elevated fire danger conditions across
northern lower Michigan today. West to northwest winds with
sustained speeds between 7-12 mph will gust to 20-30 mph at times
into this evening. Relative humidity values between 20-30 percent
are expected across parts of northern Michigan from late morning
into this evening. These conditions support the quick start and
spread of wildfires, so be sure to take the proper precautions to
prevent fires from starting.
