The Muskoka-wide fire danger rating system is in effect from now until October 31st.
The rating is verified daily and is determined using the Fire Weather Index (FWI), an internationally used method for determining the risk of fires in the open air.
The FWI uses factors such as relative humidity, temperature, previous 24-hour rain amount, wind directions, and more to determine the risk level.
The danger rating is currently set to Low.
