Atlantic Point Weather

The combination of drying fine fuels, northwest wind gusts
between 25 and 30 mph, and relative humidity values between 25
and 35 percent will contribute to an elevated risk of fire spread
Sunday afternoon for the Lower Hudson Valley, New York City and
Long Island.

This forecast considers meteorological, fuel, and land conditions
and has been developed in coordination with state fire and land
management officials.

As a reminder, the annual statewide burn ban remains in effect
until May 14. No burn permits are issued. Use extra caution if
handling any potential ignition sources such as machinery or
matches and ensure to properly extinguish or dispose of cigarette
butts. Please refer to the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation website for more information on burn
restrictions.
