The National Weather Service in Huntsville has issued a Fire
Weather Watch... which is in effect Sunday afternoon.

* Affected area: Lauderdale... Colbert... Franklin al...
Lawrence... Limestone... Madison... Morgan... Marshall...
Jackson... DeKalb... and Cullman counties.

* Timing: Sunday afternoon.

* Relative humidity: values will fall between 20 and 25 percent for
around five hours.

* Impacts: the very dry airmass will build across the southeast on

A red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions
are either occurring now... or will shortly. Low relative humidity
over a prolonged period will increase fire growth potential.
