 There is an extended watch period affecting the San Rafael Swell region through Independence Day. The Grand Staircase area remains under a separate watch, as well as the Eastern Uinta Basin and Book Cliffs regions. Low humidity and winds that may gust to 35 mph account for much of the threat of fire breaking out in the state. Residents are reminded it is illegal to light fireworks inside Bureau of Land Management boundaries and at state and national parks.
