As unusually warm and dry fall weather pushes the Fire Danger to HIGH across the entire state, new real-time weather data tool to help inform New Yorkers when there is an increased risk of wildfires has been announced. The new system’s most recent map shows much of the State’s Fire Danger Rating is now VERY HIGH and EXTREME.
