Fire Danger Rating Low Fuels do not ignite readily from small firebrands although a more intense heat source, such as lightning, may start fires in duff or punky wood.

Fires in open cured grasslands may bum freely a few hours after rain, but woods fires spread slowly by creeping or smoldering, and burn in irregular fingers. There is little danger of spotting. Moderate Fires can start from most accidental causes, but with the exception of lightning fires in some areas, the number of starts is generally low. Fires in open cured grasslands will burn briskly and spread rapidly on windy days. High All fine dead fuels ignite readily and fires start easily from most causes. Very High Fires start easily from all causes and, immediately after ignition, spread rapidly and increase quickly in intensity. Extreme Fires start quickly, spread furiously, and burn intensely.

Keetch-Byram Drought Index Soil moisture and large class fuel moistures are high and do not contribute much to fire intensity.
