Expected
Effective:
June 1, 2026 - 2:06am
Expires:

Description:
The combination of drying fuels, low relative humidity values, and
breezy winds will result in elevated fire danger conditions across
northern lower Michigan today. Easterly winds will increase to
around 10 mph this afternoon, with gusts around 20 mph. Relative
humidity values between 20 and 30 percent are expected across
most of northern Michigan. These conditions support the quick
start and spread of wildfires, so be sure to take the proper
precautions to prevent fires from starting.
