Fire danger levels increased to Extreme

Happy Tuesday, Central Oregon!

With temperatures expected to remain warm, fire danger levels have been increased to Extreme.

We should be topping out in the mid to high 90s once again, possibly 100 degrees for Warm Springs, along with northwesterly wind gusts possibly reaching 26 mph.

On Wednesday, we should be in the 90s once again, before we enter a slight cooldown on the High Desert.

High temperatures will drop into the mid-80s Thursday through Saturday, putting us right around our seasonal average.

The cooldown doesn't last long, however. We are expected to climb back into the 90s by next Monday.
