Special Weather Statement National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC 250 PM EST Sun Mar 2 2025 ...INCREASED FIRE DANGER CONTINUES THROUGH THIS EVENING... Another very dry day with minimum relative humidity of 15 to 20 percent through this afternoon. While winds are much weaker and temperatures much cooler, dry vegetation due to lack of recent rainfall combined with the dry air has once again enhanced the wildfire danger across the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia. Multiple wildfires are ongoing across the area, and the South Carolina Forestry Commission has issued a burn ban for the entire state. Outdoor burning is also strongly discouraged across the remainder of the area.
