A red flag warning is issued when we identify weather conditions that
promote rapid spread of fire which may become life-threatening. This
does not mean there is a fire. These conditions are either occurring
now or will begin soon. It is important to have multiple ways to
receive information from authorities.

Please advise the appropriate officials or fire crews in the field of
this Red Flag Warning.
