  • Dry conditions and breezy weather in New Hampshire are helping to fuel brush fires, including a fire in Winchester on Wednesday that has burned 40 acres.

On April 30, 2025, New Hampshire experienced dry and windy conditions that heightened the risk of brush fires across the state. The National Weather Service issued a red flag warning due to the combination of low humidity and strong winds, which could cause any fires that started to spread rapidly. Fire departments were on high alert, and the public was urged to avoid any activities that could spark a fire, such as burning yard waste or using outdoor grills. The dry conditions were expected to persist into the evening, with the warning set to expire at 8 p.m.
