Special Weather Statement National Weather Service Gaylord MI 448 AM EDT Wed Jun 3 2026 ...Elevated fire danger across northern lower Michigan today... The combination of drying fuels and very low relative humidity values will result in elevated fire danger conditions across northern lower Michigan today. Light west winds will only occasionally gust to near 20 mph this afternoon. But relative humidity values will drop to 15 to 25 percent in much of northern Michigan. These conditions support the quick start and spread of wildfires, so be sure to take the proper precautions to prevent fires from starting. Elevated fire danger is expected to return on Thursday.
