Weather update: Fire watch on for tomorrow

The forecast of another dry day, accompanied by wind, has lead the National Weather Service to issue a fire weather watch for tomorrow afternoon through the evening for all of Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts.

Relative humidities are expected to fall below 20 percent across most of the region. While winds won't be as strong as the past few days, the service says, they should be coming in from the northwest at 10 to 15 mph. Gusts of 20 to 25 mph are expected during the afternoon and evening.

The service notes that it is not forecasting fires, but conditions that are conducive to them.
