Be careful. We mean really really careful.

TEXANS FACE SEVERE DANGER OF WILDFIRE. BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS ABOUT ANY OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT MIGHT CAUSE SPARKS OR FIRES. SPARKS CAN EASILY ESCAPE FROM BURNING TRASH. AVOID USE OF WELDING OR GRINDING EQUIPMENT NEAR WEEDS AND GRASS. AVOID PARKING VEHICLES IN TALL...DRY GRASS AND WEEDS THAT COULD BE IGNITED BY HOT CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. WHEN IN YOUR VEHICLE...CRUSH SMOKING MATERIALS IN YOUR ASHTRAY AND MAKE SURE THEY AREA REALLY OUT.

EXTREME FIRE DANGER WILL CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...MAINLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE I-35 CORRIDOR. VERY DRY CONDITIONS PERSIST. GRASSES ARE CURED AND PLENTIFUL RESULTING AMPLE FUEL FOR GRASS AND WILDLAND FIRES.

THE GREATEST THREAT FOR EXTREME FIRE BEHAVIOR WILL BE TUESDAY FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT. RED FLAG WARNING CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY OCCUR ON TUESDAY.
