Justin Liles: Dry conditons to increase the fire risk in the Northland
Warm and dry conditions will continue over the next 7-10 days. Our abnormally dry weather will likely worsen our current drought and cause fire concerns to worsen. Winds will be rather gusty over the next 7 days. Red flag warnings may be a daily thing in the weather department. Check for any burning restrictions in your area before having a fire. There remains little potential for appreciable precipitation
over the next 7 days. Temperatures will gradually cool down behind a cold front that will slide through tonight. High pressure will move in and lock the cooler air in place. Widespread frost is likely Thursday night into Friday morning. A Frost Advisory is possible during this time.
