episode_narrativeA high pressure system centered over the Upper Midwest the previous two days produced very dry conditions over the area. This allowed the minimum relative humidity to fall into the 25 to 35 percent range, as reported by the automated weather observing equipment at the La Crosse and Viroqua airports in the afternoon hours of April 18th and 19th. The combination of the dry conditions and local wind effects enabled a control burn to become uncontrollable on the La Crosse County and Vernon County line on April 19th. The wildfire burned around 10 acres of grass.
