A report from the National Weather Service was issued on Sunday at 3:49 a.m. for fire danger until 7 p.m. for Block Island.

“The combination of low relative humidity values between 15 and 30 percent and wind gusts up to 35 mph will create an elevated risk for fire spread. Exercise caution handling any potential ignition sources, including machinery, cigarettes, and matches. Any fires that ignite will have the potential to spread quickly. This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions and has been developed in coordination with state fire and land management officials,” says the NWS.
