BALTIMORE, MD—Forecasters are warning of an increased risk of rapid fire spread in the Baltimore area on Saturday.
The National Weather Service says the combination of recent dry weather, relative humidity falling to 25 to 30 percent, and sustained west to northwesterly winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts of 20 to 25 mph will likely result in an elevated threat for the rapid spread of fires on March 29, 2025, particularly from late morning through late afternoon.
Residents should refer to their local burn permitting authorities on whether they may burn outdoors.
Anyone who does choose to burn should use extreme caution since fires can quickly grow out of control under these conditions.
