One of the bigger stories in the forecast is the warmth that's expected to spread across the region on Wednesday. Much above normal temperatures are forecast with highs in the 70s and low 80s. Along with the warmth will come increasing fire danger. As temps warm to these high levels, the atmosphere will also become rather dry with relative humidity values dropping to between 20 and 35 percent during peak heating. Breezy west to southwest winds will also develop. Keep this in mind on Wednesday!
