Park Hills, Mo. (KFMO) - A Red Flag Warning is in effect from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. today, signaling critical fire weather conditions across the region.
Breezy southwest winds, with gusts reaching up to 35 mph, will shift to a westerly/northwesterly direction this evening. This wind change, combined with dry conditions, increases the risk of wildfires spreading rapidly. Residents are urged to avoid burning, as elevated fire danger conditions are expected throughout the afternoon. Those working with fire should exercise extreme caution and remain aware of shifting wind patterns.
Officials strongly discourage any outdoor burning and recommend securing any loose debris that could ignite or spread flames.
