episode_narrativeWarm, dry and windy conditions combined to produced dangerous fire weather conditions across southeast Minnesota in early October. Sustained south winds of 15 to 30 mph, with higher gusts, combined with temperatures in the lower 80s and dew points in the middle 40s to create conditions that prompted the issuance of red flag warnings. At least two field fires occurred in these conditions near Austin (Mower County) but the fires were quickly put out with only minimal equipment and crop losses.
event_narrativeA field fire occurred southwest of Austin when a combine caused a soybean field to start on fire. The fire spread toward a residential area but fire fighters were able to extinguish the blaze before any evacuations were needed. The combine was lost to the fire.
