In addition to the Red Flag Warnings in effect across south-central Oregon today, the National Weather Service in Boise has issued a Red Flag Warning for Oregon’s Malheur County in effect from 3:00pm Mountain Daylight Time today until Midnight MDT.
Wind gusts of up to 30 mph are predicted with relative humidity as low as 3 percent in some portions of the forecast area. These factors could increase wildfire growth following an ignition.
