The Florida Forest Service is
urging Floridians to exercise caution due to the increased threat of
wildfires.
Fire danger has increased throughout
the state due to windy conditions and critically low relative
humidity over the coming days.
Gusty conditions are possible in the
Panhandle and Big Bend with the passage of a dry front.
A Red Flag Warning has been issued for
the entire Panhandle.
Since January, the Florida Forest
Service has battled nearly 1,100 wildfires that have burned over
18,100 acres across the state.
97 percent of those wildfires were
human-caused.
Due to the elevated fire threat,the
Division of Forestry is urging the public to avoid yard debris
burning.
We are in the peak of our year-round
fire activity, and current weather conditions will only add to the
existing fire danger.
