Weather Alerts
Special Weather Statement
NWS Mount Holly NJ
Thu, Apr 16, 2026 4:45:00 AM EDT - Thu, Apr 16, 2026 8:00:00 PM EDT
There is an elevated risk for fire spread today across southeastern
Pennsylvania and Delmarva. Minimum relative humidity values will
drop to around 25 to 35 percent this afternoon. This will be
accompanied by temperatures rising into the mid 80s to low 90s
and southwesterly winds near 10 to 15 mph, with gusts up to 20
mph. These conditions, along with the continued drying of fine
fuels, could support the rapid spread of any fires that ignite,
which could quickly become difficult to control. Conditions
improve during the evening as the wind diminishes and the relative
humidity increases.
Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged. Be sure to properly
extinguish or dispose of any potential ignition sources, including
smoking materials such as cigarette butts. Use caution while using
any machinery outdoors, such as lawn care equipment, that could
cause sparks to come in contact with the dry ground.
This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions
and has been developed in coordination with state fire officials.
