Good morning All,
The National Weather Service has instituted a
Red
Flag Warning from 11 am this morning until 7 pm this
evening. Since the weather will be very dry and windy with possible
gusts up to 30 mph, and when combined with the extremely dry weather of
the past few days, extra caution should be used to prevent fires
outside - for they will spread rapidly under these conditions.
As well, the Weather Service has issued a

You should bring in any cold sensitive flowers and houseplants and
cover anything in the garden that might have a problem with the
overnight temperatures.
