...FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS CANCELLED FOR FIRE WEATHER ZONE 210...

The National Weather Service in Binghamton has cancelled the Fire
Weather Watch. 

While conditions are no longer expected to reach Red Flag
criteria, relative humidity values are still expected to drop to
as low as 25 to 30 percent this afternoon, along with gusty south-
southeast winds. Therefore, there will still be an elevated risk
for wildfire spread this afternoon in parts of Central New York.
