High Winds Create Fire Danger in Colorado
A Red Flag warning has been issued for most of the Eastern Plains and the Front Range in Colorado due to high winds and low humidity.
The National Weather Service warns of extremely favorable conditions for wildfires to ignite and spread quickly, with wind gusts reaching up to 60 miles per hour.
- Red Flag Warning in effect until 6 p.m.
- Strong wind gusts expected throughout the afternoon
- Winds weakening after sunset
Russell Dannielson, a meteorologist with the NWS in Boulder, notes that this is the first Red Flag Warning issued this month.
The warning comes during a stretch of dry weather, where vegetation has dried out after a warm, windy fall, creating ideal fuel for fast-moving fires.
