    Weekend Weather: More haze, more heat

    The National Weather Service in Riverton is projecting that most areas of Fremont County will again see smoke from the California and Utah wildfires.

    Meanwhile, in the Equality State, fire danger also remains very high. Warm and dry conditions this weekend have prompted another fire danger warning from the National Weather Service:

    ...Elevated to Critical Fire Danger this weekend...
    
    Hot and mainly dry conditions will be in place across western and
    central Wyoming through this weekend. Winds will be light, but
    much of the vegetation below 8500 ft is very dry. Temperatures
    will reach the mid to upper 90s over the lower elevations, with
    temperatures over 100 possible in the Bighorn Basin Saturday.
    Relative humidity will drop below 15 percent in the afternoons.
    
    Check for local burning restrictions in your area.  Outdoor
    burning is highly discouraged! Activities that produce sparks,
    such as grinding and welding are not recommended. Avoid parking
    in high grass and do not throw cigarette butts out. Drown your
    campfires!
