国家气象局警告纽约州北部野火风险升高

国家气象局向纽约州西部和北部发出警告，预计由于春季异常干燥和多风，发生野火的风险很高。湿度预计将降至 20% 以下，阵风将达到每小时 30 英里，在大部分晴朗的天气下，气温将接近 70 度。干燥的天气和强风的结合使纽约州北部的火灾危险性升至中等，是五类火灾危险性中第二低的。

National Weather Service Warns of Increased Wildfire Risk in Upstate New York

国家气象局警告纽约州北部野火风险增加

Syracuse, N.Y. - The National Weather Service has issued a special weather statement warning of an elevated risk of wildfires across most of Upstate New York today, citing a combination of dry and windy conditions.

纽约州锡拉丘兹 - 美国国家气象局发布了一份特别天气声明，警告今天纽约州北部大部分地区发生野火的风险增加，理由是干燥和多风的天气。

Humidity levels are anticipated to fall below 20%, while winds could reach gusts of up to 30 mph. Temperatures are forecast to climb to near 70 degrees under predominantly sunny skies.

湿度预计将降至 20% 以下，而阵风可能达到每小时 30 英里。在晴朗的天空下，预计气温将升至近 70 度。

"Despite a wet spring, fine fuels such as dead grass and leaf litter will rapidly desiccate in these conditions," the weather service stated in its advisory. "Should any fires ignite, the prevailing dry and windy weather will exacerbate the spread of the blaze, rendering containment challenging."

气象部门在其报告中表示：“尽管春天潮湿，但死草和落叶等优质燃料将在这种情况下迅速干燥。” “如果发生火灾，普遍的干燥多风天气将加剧火势蔓延，使控制变得困难。”

Syracuse has experienced approximately half an inch more rainfall since March 1 compared to historical averages. Nonetheless, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has classified the statewide fire danger as moderate, the second-lowest category on a five-point scale.

自 3 月 1 日以来，锡拉丘兹的降雨量比历史平均水平增加了约半英寸。尽管如此，纽约州环境保护部仍将全州火灾危险列为中等，五分制中第二低的类别。

Precipitation is expected tonight, potentially delivering half an inch of rainfall across Upstate.

预计今晚将有降水，整个州北部可能会出现半英寸的降雨量。

Spring is typically the peak wildfire season in Upstate New York, occurring before foliage emerges and plants absorb moisture from the soil. Consequently, an annual statewide outdoor burn ban is enforced from mid-March to mid-May; this year, the ban will expire on May 14. Brush burning is permissible under specific regulations during other times of the year. However, burning household waste is strictly prohibited in New York.

春季通常是纽约州北部野火的高峰季节，发生在树叶长出和植物从土壤中吸收水分之前。因此，每年三月中旬至五月中旬在全州范围内实施户外燃烧禁令；今年，该禁令将于 5 月 14 日到期。根据具体规定，在一年中的其他时间燃烧灌木是允许的。然而，纽约严格禁止焚烧家庭垃圾。

The weather service strongly advises against open burning during these high-risk conditions. Residents are urged to exercise extreme caution and report any suspicious smoke or flames to the appropriate authorities immediately.

气象部门强烈建议不要在这些高风险条件下进行露天焚烧。敦促居民格外小心，并立即向有关当局报告任何可疑的烟雾或火焰。

Additional weather updates and safety recommendations will be disseminated through local media outlets and the National Weather Service website.

其他天气更新和安全建议将通过当地媒体和国家气象局网站传播。
