Delaware, the portions of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Vermont, Northern New York and most of Long Island, Eastern Massachusetts (except for Cape Cod and the Islands), Connecticut and Northern Rhode Island while not under Red Flag Warnings will experience elevated fire danger.
I will be listening online to the scanner from the New Jersey Forest Fire Service Division A later this afternoon I attend to some yard work.
Stay safe everyone!
